I love writing – always have. My deepest desire is to write, to tell stories, and to affect people through stories. What do I do for a living? Oh, I manage healthcare care coordination programs for a hospital system. Wondering where the connection is? Me too. The truth is, there are things that a person is “good at” and there are a person’s passions. My passion isn’t program management in healthcare. It is interesting, and I like enabling programs that are truly helping people. I’m highly organized, OCD, and type-A…all of which help me to do my job well. But it isn’t my passion.
I love to write. I don’t do it enough. Partially because when I write, my innermost feelings tend to creep out and there is a part of me that is afraid of judgment when I put these thoughts out there for the world. Every year, I make a vow to myself that I am going to make more time for writing, and for pursuing my passion. This year, my passion project is to write every day. Yes, every day. Likely, many days it will be short, other days it might be a novella. Some days it may not be on this blog, but writing for my Master’s thesis. In all of my writing, I’m seeking to further bring my passion to the surface.
I don’t intend to widely publicize this, but if people happen to stumble across it, welcome to a little corner of my world – and watch as I expand it into my life.
