I love this song, y'all, because our future is made from our dreams and aspirations.
The other day I was talking to one of my friends, and somehow what I do for a living came up in our conversation.
"I thought you were a writer?" says my friend. "I read your blog, it's entertaining."
"No, I'm trying to be a writer," I say clarifying his misconception.
Later that day, I was telling Stefan about the conversation with our friend. "That's your problem," says Stefan. "You are a writer, but you don't know it."
He went on to lecture me about, "just because you're not making money, doesn't mean you're not a writer."
And I knew he was right. I am a writer.
Hey, I like the sound of that.
To quote one of my favorite people, Rob Robb, "Believing is seeing."

if you can visualize a parking space and get it...you can visualize you being a writer and it will happen. It would be different if you were a bad writer. Then the visualization would be migraine inducing. But you write good. ;-)
Why didnt you believe me when I said you could and should write. Will you believe me,now,when I say, "you are an excellent photo-journalist". That is one of your gifts.
Never could understand why after you did four years of college in journalism, why you went to massage school. Maybe it is a Mother-daughter thing.
DON't believe anything your Mother says!
I dreamed I would have a beautiful daughter who would marry a prince and have beautiful princes and princesses.
I've read that you have to say it out loud. You write. You must be a writer. Plus you are a tenacious blogger!
Aw thanks Jen!
Ha ha Mom don't worry I do, believe what you say is true for you.
Wow Mom you may live in a bigger fantasy world than I do, but I think mine has way more sex.
Hey Sara you're right about the tenacious blogger part. I'm before we left for our trip I wrote 12 blogs, did laundry and packed. Phew!
You are a writer and a damn good one. I hope someday you get paid for it too! Bonus!
