Welcome to the Blog World

Well, this is interesting! My very first blog. I've only recently started reading other peoples blogs- and at first felt a perverse sense of snooping...but I've been assure that all bloggers feel this way to start with; and haven't I found some interesting links and sites- heck, I've even found ETSY and been shopping there!!!!!


I am hooked. I guess that I have decided to create this blog to put an otherwise hidden part of myself out there to other like minded people and see where the Universe blows me...there is an element of me that is just waiting to emerge from the constraints of me- just like a beautiful butterfly emerging from it's cocoon. Ifeel that I am at a point in my life where hitting a new decade has meant that in a way I am evaluating the years gone by, and what the years ahead of me may hold for me. If we are masters of our destiny and the journey before us, then I want to choose the map and at least the direction I would like to go. We'll see. Hopefully old habits of complaceny and accepting something less than my potential will not win out.


I rather hope to surround myself (or well at least meet) people who will inspire me to grow like the beautiful butterfly currently struggling to throw the confines of the cocoon free.


Until next time...Go well and tread lightly,


Chrysalis Kid


PS. I don't really know how to operate a blog but am learning fast ok?!!!

Hi, and welcome to blogland. I think you'll find an amazing world opens up to you once you take that step of starting your blog. I know that feeling of "snooping". When I started, and wanted to comment on a blog, I felt I'd wandered into someone's living-room uninvited and just joined in the conversation, but in opening our blogs, we are inviting whoever wants to come on in to do just that.

I arrived via Peta's blog, and notice we have quite a few likes in common. I love your list. Enjoy the adventure! Happy blogging!

Welcome ~ I am also a newer blogger and it is an interesting way to express one's self. I especially like the part that I am communicating with people from all over the world - it makes the world seem that much smaller. Keep on blogging - each post gets easier.

Welcome Chrysalis Kid!
I came from Peta's blog too.
I love your introduction ~ it strikes a chord with me. I've been blogging for a year now and, yes, it's a chance for me to explore who I am as a creative being, it's taken me to unexpected places and it has allowed me to connect some fabulous fellow bloggers...so it's nice to meet you!
Happy Sunday. =]
