#WisdomWednesday: Find Something you're Passionate About...



I have had a variety of passionate hobbies over the years: Knitting, Crochet, Stamp Carving, Hiking, Jewelry Making, the list really does go on...

But through all of that, I had a full time job, relationships, family obligations...You know, the everyday stuff that gets in the way, or just gets you overly comfortable in a routine.

The one passion that wasn't just a hobby, but a real passion was WRITING. And not just random pieces of poetry (though I did go through that phase), but story-telling, investigative writing, researching. Writing came naturally to me, and because of that, I managed to carve out my own little niche on the web honing my craft and creating my voice.

However, over the past four years, my available time was consumed by very intense job responsibilities.  Working as a consultant in my field can certainly eat up your free time, and your NOT free time. There's been countless family dinners, romantic get-aways, and even PAID TIME OFF vacations interrupted by work life.

Luckily, I'm in a position now where I can create more time for my writing, and with that, I need to evolve my writing and story-telling into VISUAL Story-telling. It's 2019, not everyone can sit and read a book, so why not develop a story that engages people visually?

I'm currently finding weird stories around my new home state: North Carolina. These stories have to be unique, unusual, something that catches the ear or leaves people with questions. And even if you have heard of these unique stories, there's got to be an angle that hasn't been explored.

And with that, I'd like to introduce you to the first video about The Brown Mountain Lights.

So far, my research has been all over the map. It seems that there's two theories, each with very strong influences with very strong opinions. While I'm not sure if I'd go the route of saying "Ghosts" or paranormal, one creepy fact remains:  Why have the Brown Mountain Lights not been given MORE exposure, and more scientific study?
