The first few good hours

Hello.

Whether you're beginning here, or returning through the long thread of future posts I can only imagine today, welcome. This is my beginning. I've had blogs before, but my heart fell out of them. I think I understand why- I didn't have a strong sense of my true self, and wandered far from it in my ramblings and rushed schedule of posts. I'm here today to announce that at 29 I suddenly came to know myself better than ever- what makes me happy, what keeps me healthy, and what fills my heart to the brim with the all-sparkling sensation that mine is a life well-lived. This blog is both a gift and a reminder to myself, that every day- every bad, beautiful, sensational, chaotic, rainy, unexpected, sick, loving, endless day- contains a few good hours in which to actively shape the life of my dreams. I'm here to share all I'm learning about what we can do to live in this moment, and I hope others will find some value in my discoveries. Ralph Waldo Emerson is my favorite writer when it comes to quotes, and the way I feel about life right now is nicely summarized in this one:

"To finish the moment, to find the journey's end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom."
