Hello to Patchling!

(Technically, this was written on)
October 11, 2012

I don't know what I'm doing here. All I know is that I'm supposed to be. And I'm going to write to you about things that I feel led to write. My blog is called Patchling. The name came to me one morning, somewhere between dreaming and opening my eyes - and it sat on my brain, restricting any further thoughts until I did something with it. I am not sure why I got out of bed and went straight to my computer so that I could quickly register Patchling as a blog site, as I had no previous thoughts, experience, or interest in becoming a blogger. I didn't even know what Patchling meant! I did think it was cute and catchy, but here I am a year later, now hearing many things about the meaning of my blog name. And it has to do with becoming a new person, from the inside out, one piece at a time.

So I guess I will qualify this as a place for inspiration, hope, promise, discovery, and perhaps occasional entertainment. On the flip side, a lot of that is often birthed from disappointment, heartache, shame, abandonment, fear, sadness, and failure. So I assume I'll be as surprised as you to find treasures buried in the heart; hiding and waiting for the perfect moment to bust out and bring joy to a face that is in desperate need of a smile.

My name is Wildfloweress and I invite you to share a very unique journey with me in this complex and wonderful opportunity called Life!
