There Jo Goes

"I love people who have been through adversity and heartache and obstacles as impossible as the sun itself. They usually make it out with hearts as warm as gold. Cores made of fire. Lives soaked with full intention. Hope like another morning. They know how to start again- how to walk through walls with palms wide open, and how to begin at the edge, and end. Those to me, are the best people." ~Victoria Erickson

This is why

Writing is a form of personal freedom. It frees us from the mass identity we see in the making all around us. In the end, writers will write not to be outlaw heroes of some underculture but mainly to save themselves, to survive as individuals.

Oh, how I love this quote.

If you scribble- you admit defeat!

I am a farm girl who is proud of where I am from- and I still miss "back-home" everyday. I have always be family oriented and believe that nothing is more important than family. I am far from girly. I have a passion for exercise, nutrition, health education, medical research and emergency medicine as well as writing. I love to read, write, cook/bake (but only in a clean and organized kitchen), garden farm, run, go on long hikes or walks, dance, and raise my sons to be as incredible as their Dad! We still laugh, dance, and are learning how to live a more simple and slower life.
