I remember feeling some trepidation when my writing began to catch fire some years ago. I loved the feeling of writing from my soul, but I was concerned about what would happen if it got noticed. Not because I had an issue with it helping others, but because I knew something about what happens in this world when you get too much attention. The wrong people show up, either wanting some of what you have, or wanting to destroy some of what you have, or both at different times. My intuition did all it could to keep me from taking certain steps, but some other part of me over-powered it. In other words, I ignored what I knew about the world we live in. I forgot to protect the gift I had opened.

If you ever bring a calling to life, protect it with all that you are. It is like a precious gem that needs to be secured over and over again. Watch it close. Keep it near. Grant nobody access to the fire that feeds it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
