I originally began this blog as a forum for exploring the transitions I'm facing in my life. It didn't take long to realize that I'm the only one who really cares about that.
So I thought, where do I go with this now? I don't want to go down in the history of blogging as the owner of the most boring and under-read blog ever.
After having a good long think, I realized there are a lot of people facing a lot of transitions in their lives; transitions like mine and transitions I haven't faced.
That's when I had my brainstorm, "I'll write about my transitions sometimes, but I'll also explore other ideas related to life changes and transitions and invite guests writers to share their experiences."
After a more recent good long think, I decided to expand on the idea of transitions and also look at transitions that take place inside of us. Because after all, a person's life could remain relatively unchanged on the outside for a long time but massive changes could be occurring in that person's mind, heart, thoughts and attitude.
So that's where Transitional-Woman is heading. I'm looking forward to seeing what my guest posters will share and I'm looking forward to sharing the lessons I'm learning as I muddle through my transitions.
And maybe after another good long think, things will change again. Who knows? But in the meantime, contact me if you have a transition you've experienced and would like to share the lessons learned or the struggles you're still wrestling with.

Blogging A to Z Challenge. Today we have T.
It's always difficult to strike a balance with blogging to know what to write about to get others interested.
ReplyDeleteYours is a mighty interesting topic: everybody goes through changes and transitions in their lives and it's how we deal with them.
I will contribute a piece about making changes in my life by moving to a different country if you like - once the A-Z is over.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Just popping in from the A to Z Challenge and like what I see. A very interesting topic. I'll be staying tuned.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have you as a guest blogger on my blog. Maybe we could switch--you could write about one of the books you've read this year, and I could write about transitions!
ReplyDeleteSounds great. I can think of several unique transitions in your life that would be great to share. I'll contact you soon.
DeleteFinding that perfect balance is never easy but I find it somewhat invigorating - you're traveling new paths in your blogging you never thought of before! How exciting is that? Looking forward to sharing it along with you.

Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteI love the theme of transitions. So much so that I would love to be a guest poster, at your blog, for one day in August of 2012. My blog tour is set and scheduled for August, but I'd love to add your blog as a stop, because the concept of transitions has played a big role in my life as I approach 50. So let me know!! (My email link is at my blog.)

August sounds good. I will contact you soon. Thanks!
DeleteOh man, transitions. My husband was diagnosed with a terminal illness in 2010. Talk a complete life change!!! I'd love to share how God is carrying me through this dramatic change in our lives. It is definitely the hardest thing I have ever done, but by His grace, I am doing it. :)
