I Could Crash and Burn, But Maybe ...

Here's to a new beginning.

Here's to a new era of writing and hoping that what I feel and write does only good and causes me and no one else harm.

My fingers hesitate when punching the keys for fear of repeating the past, yet my head is ready to burst with all the things I haven't said but want to let out... let go of.

So here I am trying, leaping, and hoping that I land on my feet.

Lets start with something simple. I'm a newlywed. Marriage is so much more than I ever envisioned. As embarassing as it is to admit, I had this glossed over, picture perfect image of marriage in my head. Which makes no sense as I have seen so many marriages in action and none of them have ever been perfect. Somehow I thought Andrew and I would be different, that we would be perfection. Was I ever wrong! Two completely imperfect people with the "ideal" marriage. We are far from perfect and our marriage is far from perfect, but for us it's just perfect. Each day is new, different, and slightly difficult, but that's what makes it interesting. Andrew, and this life we've just started together... keep me on my toes, keep me present.

I make no promises to bring intelligence to what I write, or to wow or even impress. My only promise is to be as real and honest as possible.
