The journey of writing my first manuscript has been an on going forever changing, evolution of experiences. The world of organ donation and transplant is very close to my heart. It has been a passion for me since I first sat in a chair to receive kidney dialysis, looking around the room and watching everyone including myself hooked up to a machine, caused me to pause and wonder silently was this what I wanted my life to look like?
Since writing "Waiting To Die, Wanting To Live" my passion for living and following what God and the universe present has taken me on the most amazing journey of love and faith. A journey of living in the NOW and giving thanks daily for the time I have been given.
So here I am sitting at a computer sharing on a blog what I feel and telling the world what it is I want to share. A computer I didn't even know how to turn on two years ago.
One of my favorite bible verses:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path. (Proverbs. 3:5,6 KJV)
We live in an uncertain world, it's important for me to have a soft place to fall when life just behaves as life should. I choose "to walk in love."
