TO ALL MY READERS

To all my readers...

Thank you for your time and interest in reading my pieces. At its best, the journey you took with me has been intriguing.

As the name "Local Muse" suggests, I write about everything I observe and encounter in my surroundings.

It is fascinating how you see life in different ways and forms. However, the majority of my pieces are fictional with a real-world twist.

Life is a series of stages with different acts and scenes. Some are comedies, some are tragi-comedies, some are filled with tragedy, and others are a combination that results in a roller-coaster ride.

As we ride through life, embracing it as it comes and making do with what we have to live it to the fullest, regretting nothing and missing nothing, lose not thy sight of what is essential. One can ignore the necessary and embrace the disposable.

It has been a journey worthy of a miracle and a source of wonder. At first, I hesitated, fortunately, I had someone to push me forward.

Fear was unwavering in its gaze at me, determined to keep me in the shadows. But a question prompted me to remove the cover and stand in the open. What could be worse? I wondered.

So I began sharing every word hoping it would benefit someone unexpectedly.

In life, one word can change things or make a difference.

I decided to share every word as it comes, unsure of who might require it.

As we live and encounter things, I hope you encounter the right words to help you navigate it.

I love you all and hope to see you become better succeeding in life, no matter what you face. The more you hang in there, the stronger you become.

Smiles…
