Whoa. A new adventure. Be gentle with me....

I have no idea how this is going to work. When I mentioned a "new adventure", I am being sincere. It's interesting, for me, considering that I have *no* problem sharing thoughts, opinions, or just fresh (as in, being a brat!) stuff on one of my favorite websites. I read a topic and I just toss the written OL word out there. It's safe. I can be witty (and sarcastic, I admit), but it's post and run. No one really knows me as a real person physically, but I have found that I have underestimated my internet friends. They do "know" me. In fact, I wish I could share how enlightening it has been. If they only knew the gifts they have given me. These wonderful people have nurtured and encouraged me. How amazing is that!!?

I have never blogged before. Then again, I've never eaten sushi, either. So perhaps there are simularities here. I look at sushi, see the rolled rice wrapped in that green stuff, some red thin sliced fish (I think), and I wonder about the taste. The texture. What flavors will I enjoy or not so much? Will it leave a pleasant taste within my mouth or will I want to run to the nearest ladies room?

So, this is a test run. I'm sure I'll get more comfortable sharing once I get over knowing others can read what I write. Maybe I'll lurk over at my favorite place and steal a topic. Kinda like a cheat sheet for blogging. :o )

  1. OL, you are beautiful. I love how you write from your heart. I will be checking here daily for my OL fix. Glad I'm the first in what I'm sure will be a long line. xoxo
