Prompt for December 7 from Project Reverb:
Victory Laps: What was your biggest accomplishment of 2013?
I haven't won any awards this year.
No standing ovations.
The jury is still out on any parenting or educational victories.
In fact, I haven't performed a single poem in 2013.
What a bizarre turn of events for me!
Here's a big victory, though:
I moved forward, anyway.
I stood up for myself and am now practicing standing up for myself.
I am walking toward being completely content in all circumstances, but especially in the stuff I have direct control over, or my actions have an impact upon them. In the last twenty-four hours I have made some pretty radical, for me, decisions about 2014 which I think will take me in the right direction for my long term goals.
THIS is victory.
It might not look like much, but believe me, it is huge.
Oh, and an another exciting one for me? Writing Camp with Julie Jordan Scott just got our 1,000th like on facebook. If you haven't liked us yet, come on it and try it out!
