Attitude for Life

Blog No. 151

My Great Aunt passed away last week. She was ninety-one years old and told some of the best stories I’ve ever heard. I’m not writing about this because I want a bunch of sympathy or anything. I debated even mentioning her passing because that’s not the kind of woman she was. I didn’t know her as well as I knew my grandparents, but I knew her well enough to know she had little time for modesty and sympathy. I want to talk about her because, through her living her life, she taught me some important lessons that I carry with me and I want to show my respects in the only way I know how (by writing about her). No one is perfect, everyone has flaws and weak moments, but some people leave the impression of goodness and that comes from the amount of good that they did.

Blog No 87

Adventure Worlds has been going strong for a year and a half now. I’m really proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish so far, and I’m excited for the things we are currently working on. We went from a group of friends to a writing group to a budding community with followers, regular submissions, and connections with other groups. This blog is coming along too. I’m still not sure where it’s going long term, but for now I’ve been able to hit the weekly deadline and send a lot of views Adventure Worlds way. I’d like to think I had a part in encouraging Christian to start his blog too. To top it off, we’ve now been in two local publications. Also, I may have mentioned a couple of times now, we are getting close to having our first book done and our Zine is a week away from being printed. (That’s not including Christian’s book which should be out next month).
