The Plunge

As I take my first plunge into the Blogging World,
let me begin by welcoming you to: My Swirly World

My naming of this site comes from my love of SWIRLS! Then, I pinged a few girl friends, who helped me settle on the final name (thanks peeps). Overtime, as I build out this site, you will see my love of swirls more clearly revealed. I have a lot of reasons for liking this symbol, shape, object (or whatever you want to call it) and that too will be revealed as I grow my blog. For now, the thing to know is... I am Swirly Girly and this is.... My Swirly World.

I dreamt of building this site last night... I mean literally... it was almost torturous because the detail of the dream was so vivid. Actually, I get this A LOT... (the vivid dreams part)... seeing as how we spend 1/3 of our lives asleep, I firmly believe that meaningful ideas can come from this time. As God sees fit, I want to harness my waking and sleeping muses, notions, blessings, and light into the works and efforts that He leads me to create.

Interestingly enough, I have for quite some time struggled with the digital blogging world... it seemed like a way for people to artificially satisfy their innate need to socialize. My concern was that people would become introverted and reclusive as a result. But I see things differently now... now the notion of blogging has my nerves buzzing with delight... I can hardly contain myself (and no... this is not my ADHD getting the best of me). What I see now is a place for me to organize, house, and share my creative efforts and work... this will be my place for creative accountability. In fact, my blog will allow me to outwardly express what has been for the most part my extremely introverted and reclusive creative existence... the exact opposite of what I had feared... imagine that!
