No words to express how excited I feel. My very own blog!!! For me, writing has been a passion and one which I have sadly neglected over the past many years. With 2011 just around the corner, I have a list of New Year resolutions. One of them is to start writing again and the creation of this blog is a means to assure that I stay true to that resolution.
Why the name Swan song? The phrase 'swan song' means a final gesture or performance. There is an interesting ancient folklore that believes the Swan to be completely mute during its lifetime until the moment just before it dies, when it sings one beautiful song. This is not true and Swans in fact are not mute. Regardless, the folklore fascinated me and the creation of this blog is sort of a final gesture towards my resolution to start writing more often. And since my name does mean 'song', the blog name Swan song seemed appropriate.
Signing off on my very first blog post with butterflies in my stomach and some passing thoughts....
Life is....the unexpected....full of surprises.
Life is....also the expected....lots of certainties.
Life is....short and sweet
Life is....things that sweep you off your feet.
Life is....not black, not white....but gray
Life is....at times dark as night, at times bright as day
Life is....yet so promising, so wonderful
Life is....simply BEAUTIFUL.
Way to go. The start is still the easier part. It is to keep it going, that is more difficult. Here's for a long innings.
