Feeling the Rhythm Once Again

Yeah, I’m feeling it once again. The dark night of depression has dissipated and I can once again think clearly. The past month has been an incredible spiritual journey. God has reawakened my passion, resolve, and hope for a better day. I can feel anxiety and worry slipping by the wayside. Fear and self-destruction are nearly nonexistent. But I know I must not grow complacent. Stay the path and do not waver.
The past week has been incredible. Three stories. Mark it, three stories to work on and I am not feeling the anxiety of which I will begin first. Monday I worked on one. Tuesday and Wednesday another. And Thursday to today, the third story. I came into contact with an old friend, an accomplice in the birthing of the idea for Jeremiah (the third story) and we will meet up and do some writing and illustrating on Saturday. It has always been my dream to write collaboratively. Not every story, but a set number, to be set apart and shared with another artist and writer. To help craft it into something bigger than ourselves. After years of dreaming this dream, I pray it come true.
Another reason I feel incredible is I finally took a step, a step forward, a step I have been putting off for two years. I do not want to get into it now lest some people read this. I am not yet ready for some to know. Not yet. But in a month. Oh but it is good. Great. Wonderful. I haven’t felt this unbound and free in years.

Until another night—when specifics return…
