Photo Challenge: words

Words give me life. Reading a book, writing a blog post, receiving a loving text message from my mom, endless hours with my google reader. I devour anything written.

Lately, I'm determined to derive my living through words. I'm overflowing with so many ideas, I often find myself coming home from work and furiously etching out businesses plans on the dry-erase board hanging in my kitchen. Below is yesterday's revelation.

The real challenge, though, is living by my word. 

That involves taking responsibility for making my carefully-laid plans a reality. 

It involves sticking with my ideas even when they're not popular. 

It involves huge risk, because underlying all of the plans is this promise:

I will live a meaningful life, on my own terms.

Photo Challenge: My View

I considered finding an artsy angle to photograph or snapping a sunset picture on my run today for this initial photo in the challenge, but let's be real here.

This is my view for way too many hours every day:

I sit in my fishbowl a midst sounds of the shredder directly across from my door. I'm often confused as the office secretary and I rarely interact with a soul.

Such is the corporate life, I guess.
