The scariest moment is
just before you start
No matter what you do
That beats in your heart
You have to take risks
to follow through
With those dreams
that exists in you
So put aside that fear
those butterflies
in your stomach
And reach for the skies
Just don’t stop believing
in what’s in your soul
Take a chance in life
before stagnation takes hold

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''

Isn’t it true that thing they say “the first steps the hardest” but we should take it anyway! So many people let life pass them by. I was one of those until I watched Oprah’s last show (Don’t laugh it was super inspiring. You should definitly read the transcripts) I’ve accomplished more in that time since, then the twelve years prior. Obviously, you’ve struck a chord with me today. I love your writing and look forward to finding your work in my inbox! Keep it coming!
Oprah! Haha. Yeah, I’ll read the transcript definatly. Interested. I totally agree with you hence the poem. I’m in the middle of making a huge change & taking a leap of faith as they say. As you said, It’s that first step. All the things I’ve done in my life & not really done a thing. That’s about to change. good luck with your choices.
Here, Let me help you out. Read when you need motivation to “live your best life”. Good Luck to you as well.
