My wish, my dream, is that this publication will inspire, challenge, and grow us all in fresh, fun, and fruitful ways.
But let’s get real: Why add another blog to the day? Why read this one?
• You’ll find thoughtful and sometimes funny (I like to laugh) stories by writers from all kinds of backgrounds. Who knows—you might even become one of them!
• This blog will focus on three key themes: open circles (building inclusive communities while setting boundaries), legacies (stories and traditions we pass on), and undertold testimonies (personal stories that few have heard).
• Each entry includes a practical tip to adapt something in the story to everyday life.
Our first collab comes from a sister West Virginian, Mary Farley. I bet many of us can relate to the legacy that her mom left. But it’s losing ground these days. Maybe you can add some thoughts on how to revive this kind of legacy.
Next, I’ll share a story about open circles, based on my experience traveling across the U.S. last year on an Amtrak rail pass.
