The Courage To Accept Something New

January 25th, 2009 | by Debra Oakland |

The wind tasted like sweet wine as I walked through the vineyard.  I noticed a feeling of excitement as I moved forward. The courage to accept something new. My body tingling with anticipation.  Each step into the vineyard spoke volumes about my life. Years of crazy adventures moved behind me.  A sense of purpose even I did not understand pushed at me.  My path was set.

I started laughing at the absurdity of it all.  Life is full of surprises, twists and turns.  I exited the vineyard, along with my deep thoughts. I began to laugh, rolling my eyes upwards in full agreement with this turn of events.  I surrendered to the inevitable conclusion that had been before me my entire life, yet somehow set aside.  I stepped out of the vineyard into my new life as a writer.

    Wow, you never cease to amaze me with the way you express yourself through your pen(keypad). Your words are both beautiful and inspired. You touch many people with your words and this journey has only just begun.

    I love you,
