Once the website was up, I am fully grasping that I have entered… the Abyss, the black-hole of cyber-space.

There is a whole different language – html, SEO, submissions to directories, RSS feeds, PPC …huh?

And that’s only the beginning!

Anxiety grips my heart just like it does when one is entering the unknown.  Will my little website – a flicker of Light in this abyss, die a slow death – obliterated by the bling, bling of the experts who have been at this for such a long time?

Oh dear God, do I just give up now?

But here’s the kicker, almost in the same moment, an analogy popped into my mind. Entering the internet abyss is reminiscent of the beginning of my spiritual journey so many years ago. I had no clue what was in store for me… what my direction was, or what the ultimate rewards would be however, I simply love how the Universe speaks to me because what I stepped away from that imagery was; just like my spiritual journey. I am gong to take this one day at a time. I am going to remain open for daily “signs” and lessons to take me to the next level, I am going to practice patience and perseverance.I am going to learn all I can from those who have been there before me...

I certainly will not give in to fear, as this will cripple my poor little website before I give it a chance. I commit to working this new experience to the fullest and I know that at the end of the day, I will walk away from this a more informed, more internet savvy participant.

The morale of the story is; when first confronted by fear which very nature cripples action, take a deep breath... trust in the sincerity of your intention and desire, trust that you will be guided and though yes, we will stumble and even fall, inner resolve and staying true to our higher purpose will guide us through the darkest corridors of the Abyss.

In light and love,
