What Does Struck by Living Mean?
Struck by Living, the title for my book has two meanings:
1. To be struck down by life
2. To be struck in awe of life
It occurred to me that the Struck by Living website has far too much on depression and being struck down by life and not enough of what 90% of my life is - being in awe. As of today I am changing that - a SBL (Struck by Living) rebrand if you will.
There is a fun history behind the title and the book cover, I will publish that tomorrow.
For today, let me tell you what's on the awe list. Spring. This is my favorite time of year in Dallas: warm but cool weather, flowers blossoming, light dripping through trees. We don't have a real winter here, but the flowers just make me pause and breathe deep. Look around and enjoy your season, whatever it may be.
