T O P I C R E V I E WcoconutcancermoonWriting has been my passion since I was a child. Unfortunately I did not pursue my dream because I was discouraged by my family that it would not be a stable or successful career for me. Now that I am a work from home mom I have more free time than most and often feel inspired by my wonderful eight year old son whom aspires to be an astronaut. He costantly reminds me what most adults, including me, often forget, to dream big and know in your heart of hearts that they will come true. So better late than never, I am ready to dive in! My writing is pretty rusty, but not my imagination. I am not yet certain of my career goals, however, "If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endesvors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours" (Henry David Thoreau) I am following my instinct and I believe in the end it will bring me to where I'm supposed to be. I am very ecstatic to begin!AcousticGodTypo on "endesvors". Accidentally hit the 's' instead of the 'a'. RandallA few comma errors.------------------"Cooking is like love.

I also added hyphens, a semicolon, and corrected a run-on sentence. Work-at-home is traditionally hyphenated, but you said work from home, so I'm not sure and left it as is. ------------------"Cooking is like love.
