K.A.Parkinson: Embracing My Nerdiness
http://kaparkinson.blogspot.com/2013/02/embracing-my-nerdiness.html
Monday, February 4, 2013. Funny, when I was younger the idea of being unlike everyone else was appalling, yet now as an adult I thank God I am not. Anything space or fantasy related I ate it up. I wanted to be an astronaut more than anything else—until I learned that traveling through hyper-space and actually landing on Endor to hang out with Ewoks was extremely unlikely. I stuck to the fictional world after that. I’m proud to be a nerd. Who wants to be a lemming anyway? Labels: embracing my nerdiness.

http://kaparkinson.blogspot.com/2013/01/crazy-dreams.html
Monday, January 28, 2013. Well, I finally did it. Nope, not lose my mind- that happened years ago:). No, I decided to chase a dream, a crazy, silly dream that started when I was really young. It's one of those dreams you hold close to your heart and don't ever tell anyone because they might tell you it's a stupid dream and break your heart. I'm so grateful to those of you who have been examples to me throughout my life and have walked this journey with me and continually encourage and support me. Hi, Kel...

K.A.Parkinson: "What saves a man is to take a step, and another step." C.S. Lewis
http://kaparkinson.blogspot.com/2013/04/what-saves-man-is-to-take-step-and.html
Tuesday, April 23, 2013. What saves a man is to take a step, and another step." C.S. Lewis. I absolutely love the movie, The Princess Diaries. At a very critical point in the movie Mia finds a letter from her deceased father. He offers her some really great words of advice. This advice helps her to make the decision that will ultimately affect the lives of millions of people. (At least in the fictional country of Genovia.). Those who truly live life are the ones who go out and find it. Well, I finally di...
