Never consider yourself to be the cause of the results of your activities, nor be attached to inaction” —Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 2, Verse 47 It’s end of the month, and I’m checking the number of views on my blog, comparing my progress with so many other bloggers who love to showcase their numbers.
I keep coming back to read this write up. Different rays of wisdom every time I read it. And I go away with a wealth of knowledge with regards to going on the battle field daily I.

As writers, we share the things that touch our hearts and souls. How they are received is in the hands of the readers. I like to think my readers will find a connection in my words and hope they resonate with whatever they are going through.
My hope is that no matter the numbers, if the people following us on newsletters, social media, etc, truly get to know us, they will value our work and our point of view.
Our battle is to fight for authenticity and our own voice in a sea of noise. Thank you for your post xx
