December 1st marks the beginning of Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness Week. December 1st is also my birthday. And, today marks one year since I wrote and published by first blog. I chose this date to publish my first blog for those reasons. I took it as a sign that my birthday falls on the first day of Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness Week. I wanted to start the blog to make others aware of this disease. I have published 22 blogs that are part educational, part devotional, and a little glimpse into my life and my journey with Crohn’s.
Thank you to everyone for following along on this journey. Every day is it’s own journey with it’s own challenges.
I have had a goal/dream to write a book for many years. I have a novel I have started writing. In the back of my mind was the gnawing feeling that I couldn’t write a fictional story until I wrote my own story. I decided the best way to tell my story was through a blog. I plan to continue telling my story while living a life hidden in plain sight.
Reflection: Live and celebrate your best life each and every day.
