Author's Note:
To pause and ponder is to consider something—anything—deeply, often through meditation and always with the possibility of bringing greater meaning. Years in the making, As I Lay Pondering began as a venue for my own personal healing. What was birthed through a series of journal entries has morphed into this daybook of poetry, prose and personal musings.
My love of writing began in the midst of a particularly life-draining period of time. At that point in my journey, I had two choices. One—to let the current events swallow me whole and conceal my spark forever, or Two—to find my authentic voice and begin to write. Writing chose me. Yes, you read that correctly. Writing chose me. It was not a conscious decision on my part.
What you hold in your hands is a culmination of this journey. I was compelled to write this book to honor the life-changing moments I have witnessed throughout my life, and to acknowledge the internal spark I believe each of us carries. My hope is that the words shared in As I Lay Pondering will provide essential kindling to ignite the flame of your life. May you know the joy of following your own spark. May you be present to the life you have in order to experience the one you desire. May you pause and ponder thoughtfully and often. May you be well.
