We've moved, oh, about 12 or 13 times, and almost every time I dug my fingernails in, desperately trying to keep my hold on the familiar. But the last two moves were different. It finally hit me that God will put me where I'm supposed to be. I can deal with it or dissolve into a puddle of goo.<BR/><BR/>And hello? Of course you're smart! You're a writer! It goes with the territory.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by!Jill Kemererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07865493609868329393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-86009165907560042492009-04-08T15:40:00.000-04:002009-04-08T15:40:00.000-04:00Since I am still on the beginning leg of my writin...Since I am still on the beginning leg of my writing journey, I try not to look too far down the road and "freeze up" with fear. There is so much to learn, it can be mind boggling. <BR/><BR/>I work in a school setting and we all had to take a "Strengths" Test. One of my top 5 strengths was Adaptablility. The ability to go with the flow and adapt to change. That made me feel good, because life is always changing and if I couldn't deal with it, then I would be a sorry mess! ;) Change is growing, and growing means I am getting smarter. (tell me I am getting smarter, pleeaassee!)Sherrinda Ketchersidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581676437345249386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-22134751175719068582009-04-08T15:01:00.000-04:002009-04-08T15:01:00.000-04:00Thank you Jody.

Or maybe I'm just more neurotic than other writers? <BR/><BR/>Yeah, I didn't think so!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by!Jill Kemererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07865493609868329393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-39600716251826772192009-04-08T10:02:00.000-04:002009-04-08T10:02:00.000-04:00Hi Jill,Very well put!

It's kind of scary to think that we'll always struggle with each level of the writing journey. Just because we get published doesn't mean we'll never have fears and problems! In fact, I'm sure the issues only get bigger!<BR/><BR/>I'll look forward to your posts next week on how to deal with our fears!Jody Hedlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424307540530719614noreply@blogger.com
