The Beginning

9.22.14 (re-upload)

I am excited about everything this website represents. Its creation is the result of my willingness to persevere through adverse circumstances. Its existence demonstrates my overwhelming desire to connect with you, the reader. A year ago, I could not imagine being a graduate with a Master's degree, a published author, or an entrepreneur. Today, I am realizing life-long dreams. There were many difficult lessons I had to learn in order to be in this present moment. Months of solitude, stillness, & isolation made it possible for me to pass challenging tests. Ultimately, this website is founded upon midnight prayers and afternoon tears. In future posts, I will share with you poems that convey my 2014 journey. I will invite you into sacred moments that transformed my life. Most certainly, my experience remains relatable; therefore, I relay personal information with the purpose of encouraging, advising, and comforting you. You are an integral part of this new chapter in my life. Thank you for your active participation.

Love,

CompassionateLee
