Happy Friday! Can you believe that it is almost the end of October? I can’t believe that the month has flown by so quickly. You know that that means, right? November is coming along with the chaotic days of writing for National Novel Writing Month.  I thought this quote was relevant in light of it almost being November, which means many things, most of which include more work for the month.

First, how could I resist quoting a wonderful writer when it is almost time for Wrimos to come out and furiously type together at write-ins? I couldn’t resist. Also, I love the quote because it reminds us that we have the ability to choose what to do with our lives and that makes us human.

So for November, I choose to throw caution to the wind (along with my inner editor) and write until I simply can write no more. I choose to pour words onto the page in the reckless, fun pursuit of creating for no other reason than I want to create worlds with my words. I choose to spend time with fellow writers who understand that sometimes you just need to write and other times you just need to eat some more chocolate.

So whether our choices are big or small, whether we choose something for the day or for the long haul, we have to remember that our choices matter and that they matter in our core. We are our choices and we are all humans fumbling through this messy world together. I think that’s a good thing to remember as we finish up a month and stride forth into another.

Hope you have a wonderful day, no matter how you choose to spend it. 🙂
