Welcome to Word Wednesday...
There is a point in our life when we have to take a leap of faith. Hold our nose and jump. My Webster search found the word “bridge” today. Defining this word as a structure spanning and providing passage over an obstacle. I sniff a metaphor here. How many bridges will we cross in a lifetime? Each crossroad requires a bridge to the other side of growing up, moving, having a child, getting married, first job, the death of a parent and the re-release of a debut novel. Bridges long and short, some that span decades are all part of the journey.
One of my favorite poems by Shel Silverstein is “The Bridge” – it begins with: This bridge will only take you halfway there to those mysterious lands you long to see…and ends so poignantly-but this bridge will only tale you halfway there…the last few steps you’ll have to take alone.
Blog what you see, hear, feel, and think.
Hudson Catalina is now an eBook and paperback re-released a few days ago by Imajin Books. Check it out on Amazon-links (bridges) under construction to facilitate navigation and crossing over to where one day can change a life forever.
Live each day well-or write a book.
