A year ago today, I launched Laine's Blog, Thinking Out Loud.

It was perhaps the first time that I truly put my heart and soul into something so completely.

 

I stepped into the world,

and nearly fell over myself wanting to run away from the vulnerability of it all.

But I didn't back up – I held true to my vision in spite of the doubts and fears,

and Laine's Blog is alive and well today, a whole year later

and I am feeling so grateful and proud!

 

Thanks to my many subscribers and followers, you make it worth my while

every day and I am so grateful to you.

 

The only change seems to be the missing Mondays. I'm not sure how long that will last,

but for now everything else is all systems go!

 

And by the way, sharing your heart and soul, some way, shape or how,

is highly recommended.

Wriggle and wrangle your way through the discomfort and you will find that

when one door opens, another one does too, and then another and another- honestly!

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 

Laine
