Here I am
On my way
Down another road I have paved
With every good intention I’ve saved
And hearts that I broke

As for me I got scars
For every mile I’ve traveled so far
And some blood on my hands
Here I am

With a song in my heart
And an attitude from the start
I took everybody apart
To see how they work

I got friends that I owe
I ain’t namin’ names
Cuz they know where they stand
Here I am

If I went back where I’ve been
And I knew what I know now then
Well I’d probably do it again
Cuz I’m just a (wo)man
At the end of the day
I ain’t got nothing to say

Here I am
-Steve Earle

I had planned to start this blog on 7/7/07 as a way to symbolize something: luck, good fortune…but typical with me, I got side-tracked, distracted or otherwise detained and put it off.

But now I’m here and unlike the lyrics above, at the end of the day, and at times between, I do have things to say. Whether anyone else is listening (or reading), I’m not sure, but I just knew that I had to create a space for myself here.

I hope you enjoy what follows as I make my way. I’ve been inspired by many other bloggers out there (see the Blogroll) and if I can give just one bit back to them that they’ve given to me to help feel connected, inspired and simply aware of the possibility that there is a place like this, I’ll be happy.

This is just the beginning.
