Celebrate The Tries
November is always a time of reflection for me about the year past, as well as a time of celebration for the gift of life. As you may already know, I was born in November.
This past year, with all its ups and downs, can be summarized in one sentence: I tried my best every day to reach my full potential.
The beauty of life for me is found in the simple moments of our daily lives. So that’s what I’m celebrating this year: the tries.

What is the best present you have ever received?
November is a time of celebration for me, as it is my birthday month. On my birthday last week, I received many calls, emails, cards, texts, and visits from friends and family all around the world. I felt the outpour of love and support and am truly blessed. For me, presence is the best present!
NaNoWriMo Challenge: Writing My Novel in One Month!
I know many people who have said they want to write a book but don't know how to start or what to write about.
My advice: JUST START WRITING! If you need help, you should read "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron. She encourages people to get up every morning and write three pages by hand. Even if you have nothing to say, just write out "I have nothing to say" for the three pages.
I know this challenge may be hard, and there will be days when you want to quit; but, keep writing! I would appreciate your comments and participation, as it is always easier to keep going when people are on the journey with you. But this challenge is one with myself; I have a lot to say and want to get it down.
