I recently read this quote and thought I'd pass it along to think about when considering the upcoming New Year:
Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Who you are speaks so loudly I cannot hear what you're saying."

About Me
- Connie
- I am a vegan, a Messianic Jew, an animal rights activist, a “rabid” environmentalist, an avid reader, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend and all-around nut! I’m looking forward to getting to know you! I am also a reluctant blogger. When I was a kid, I asked my parents for a diary. My dad cautioned me about sharing my secrets and especially putting them in writing. I got my diary, but couldn’t write more than about three half-hearted entries such was the level of my paranoia! A friend of mine once explained she started blogging as a discipline for writing -- she needed someone to read to hold her accountable to the goal of writing every day. That's why I'm blogging Monday through Friday -- as a discipline to write, to share whatever wisdom may be in my ramblings, to learn to open up to people and to see where it goes from here. Thank you for joining me on my journey; I appreciate your taking the time to read and I welcome your comments. You can also e-mail me at seewhykinsman@gmail.com.
