Choosing a path

I am hardly ever short on words. And by hardly ever, I mean never. And here I am wondering about what to write in my first blog post! I'm excited and I'm nervous, but I am working on getting over my need for perfection before I start something. It sounds kind of ridiculous, but I'm working on it.

I am so filled with awe and wonder in this world, so I plan to use this blog as a place to ponder and revel in those experiences.


I thought that this picture from my travels in the Cinque Terre in Italy seemed appropriate. The Cinque Terre hosts a hiking trail that extends through 5 cities on the coast of the Mediterranean. This stone compass was in Riomaggiore, the first of the five cities where the trail begins, where I was first enticed to choose whatever path suited me in that moment.  

The start of this blog is transporting me back to when I stepped off the train in Riomaggiore, with nothing more than a backpack and a best friend to accompany me. Where will I go from here? Only time will tell!
