Happy Mother's Day & Blog Launch Day

Happy Mother’s Day.

Firstly, A special Happy Mother's Day shoutout to my daughters.

You are both exceptional mothers.

You have always shown far more patience, as mothers, than I was ever able to muster when you were kids. Excellent job.

Celebrate yourselves today, my lovely ladies. You deserve it!

I also want to commend all you moms out there. You are fabulous, my true superheroes!

Enjoy this day in whatever way makes you the happiest.

And next up: If you are reading this post on Mother’s Day, 2026, it signals not only my tremendous pride in my daughters and in being a mom myself, but it also marks another accomplishment for me. I officially published this blog today.

What better day to launch one of my heart’s desires than to go live with my blog, which is not only because I have a lot to share about life and the current Great Awakening, but it is also a written legacy for my family.

Yes, after a ton of starts and major writer's block, my blog, A New Dawn Breaks, is officially live. (Happy dance)

Quick note: My blog posts do not follow any chronological order. I draw writing inspiration from whatever moves me in the moment or any divine guidance I receive.

So, anyhoo, why is this blog so special to me? Well, I have been working on and trying to publish it for about five years. Crazy, right?

I am not new at writing. I have been writing all my life.

That includes decades of writing for several newspapers and for various online companies.

Heck, for about three years I wrote a weekly column for a city newspaper. So, what gives?

You might be curious as to why I didn't simply discontinue this blog idea and pursue another project. Why wasn’t it obvious that, perhaps, it was not meant to be?

Actually, I did give up. Many times. But time and again I felt this little nudge to revisit it. Maybe just once more.

Over and over, I went back to creating my blog and writing posts for it.

I redesigned it many times. I hated it. I loved it. I called it my baby. I felt sorry for it. I called it stupid. I thought it was brilliant. And on and on it went.

Finally, one day, after feeling completely disappointed in my progress, I surrendered my sad blog to God and my divine team.

I asked God and my divine team to let me know (when they had a minute) if my aspiration to create this blog was even in the cards for me.

Then I let the idea of my blog go to float around out in the cosmos. “Take your time,” I said, as I gently sent it off with love.

You know what, I’m not being truthful about how I let go of my blog vision. It wasn't sappy. Nor was it easy.

Honestly, I didn't want to "surrender" my cherished project.

Facing the prospect that it truly might not be something I was meant to create left me feeling down and disheartened.

So, the surrender was more like a pouty, agitated farewell:

“Yeah, so long, lifelong burning passion. It wasn’t even fun while it lasted. There are millions of blogs that already exist. I don't have the time to stay committed to something like this anyway. Maybe I’ll check into something less stressful, like fencing or paragliding.”

For the past few years, surrendering to a higher hand (on a regular basis) is something I admit that I have been working on.

Feeling the need to control the outcomes in my life is definitely one of my shadowy aspects.

Thank goodness God and my divine team are patient with me. They get when I am frustrated.

I also know that my divine team knows that I have been diligently putting in a lot of inner work. I now let go and let God.

No matter how foolish I act, they are always listening and show me signs leading the way forward. It's up to me to either acknowledge those signs or ignore them.

In this case, my compassionate team had me sit out another six months.

There must have been a significant reason for the delay.

And there must have been a significant reason that I didn't give up on this blog.

I'm learning to never second-guess my divine team.

And here I AM, sharing this post on my newly published blog…on Mother’s Day.

Thank you, God, and my divine team, for showing me patience and grace to wait for this wonderful gift on this most special day.

And thank you for helping me to remember the divine within me.

Life is beautiful. All is well.

I look forward to walking this journey with you.

Until next time…

Stay fearless, divine souls.
