People are invited to share their stories and struggles.
It is a place of safety.
Of acceptance.
Of honesty.
Of bravery.
Of truth.
I was encouraged to submit...but I found myself intimidated....
Not by the Band, but by my own self-consciousness.
I finally just took a deep breath and hit "submit."
They have featured 11 of my posts so far, and unfortunately, I have been a slacker in attempting to submit more...
If you read my blog regularly, you've probably already read them in their original incarnation over here at JPJ, but here's where you can find them on their site:
About Cerebral Palsy
About Depression
About Losses and Gifts
About Sexual Assault
About Mamahood
About Breaking Chains
About Fertility
About Being Fatherless
About Relationships
About Labels
About Body Image
I am honored to be a part of this community.
So thankful for the love and support I've received, but particularly for the stories that have been shared with me.
