Oh look, another attempt at a blog. I’ve had many starts and stops over the years with blogging. From cowgarfamilyadventures.blogspot.com, to palebluehomestead.blogspot.com, to palebluehomestead.com. I do plan to keep palebluehomestead.com active, even though it hasn’t been in some time. Although homesteading is something we really won’t be diving into (besides the chickens), it encompasses our homeschooling journey, debt payoff plan, home renovations, and lots of other family shenanigans. Luke even has his own website, thebeardedluke.com, to eventually document his airplane building experience, once we get that far in life, which I’m sure I’ll also share tidbits of that adventure on here and at Pale Blue Homestead.
This new adventure, catastrophicstardust.com, is more of a personal project. I see it as a hodge podge of writings, health updates, debt payoff stuff, and other thoughts I feel like sharing. I don’t know, I guess we’ll see if it sticks.
I’ve always been a wannabe writer, jotting down ramblings in the sidelines of notebooks at school. I have 4-6 story ideas started on my computer, I’ve tried and failed to participate in NaNoWriMo, I’ve searched out Pinterest for story prompt ideas, and I’ve even dabbled in Fan Fiction (although I read more than I write…lol)
So, why not start off with some rambling words. Here’s my first writing to share on this new blog, inspired by my Instagram handle that’s become part of my online persona.
Catastrophic Stardust
“Let us follow the trail of mushrooms, dotting the moss covered rocks. Let us listen to the wind carry whispers of stories long ago. We can tell each other secrets as the sun shines warmly, and play games in the shadows of the clouds floating past.
And if you find yourself separated from me when the veil thins, you only need to check the forest after night falls, when the moon smiles, and the fireflies dance.
There you’ll find me under the trees in a sea of darkness, following the rogue rivers, full of rust and catastrophic stardust, to the shimmering void in the valley below.
We can greet each other and embrace once again, before setting out to follow the stars together on this path unknown.”
