Hello, it’s the first blog, first day, first exciting moment to share my thoughts. I’m a writer and I tend to write stories and write about the things I am thinking. What I’ve been thinking lately is how crazy the world is. When I read The Times (pick one, there are many. I subscribe to two), I am disheartened, fearful, and left wondering how good people can make change in the world.

I love reading about the world, and I want the latest news. I like the detail of why and who and how we are in the messes and power grabs. So great job to all The Times publications. (you should subscribe) But….before I went to sleep last night, I thought, “Is there a place to read about the good in the world?” Maybe there is, but I don’t know it.

And here I am asking myself, “Who am I to create such a thing?” I’m not a bigwig or a fatcat or a topgun. I’m just a girl who wants to live a good life with neighbors and citizens who want the same. Who are we really if we are not together in all this? This wonderful and amazing life.
