When Discovery first advertised the show “Naked and Afraid”, we thought it was a weird concept and didn’t watch it even though we are avid watchers of the channel. We happened to catch an episode one rainy Sunday afternoon and we were hooked. Despite the awkwardness, it’s a pretty good show.
The female on the show last night, Samantha, got me thinking. She is a single mother of two girls. She wanted to complete the challenge for them – to show them that if their mom could do this, they could do anything they set their mind to.
I’m a mother of two girls and I want the same for them. I want them to always follow their dreams and never settle.
From this day forward, I’ve decided to tackle my dream of becoming a full time writer with a new vengeance. I’ve come up with a schedule where I will work hard, but also make time for my family. Our family has some big dreams and part of us achieving those dreams is me to get my writing career off the ground.
I also miss this space, so look for me here more often.
I have a feeling if I remember these two in everything I do, I will keep going.
