The Future is Pregnant

orning Dew’ the book was finally launched in March on my birthday in true Genevieve tradition of going the whole 9 yards. “Put a twist to it.” I always say; why go with the flow? So, Morning Dew “was launched in the most untraditional style, starting with the décor which held guests spellbound as they entered the lounge of the AGIP hall where the mood was instantly set. The readings were unprecedented and you could hear a pin drop as each person read her-his fave Dew.I thought I was having an out of body experience. I loved every itsy bitsy moment of it. One memory that will remain etched on my mind for a long time is that of me sitting in the audience among friends and family, watching other people read from my book and then interprete them differently from my thought! Those moments remain frozen! Finally, I am an author…even if it by default! What a feeling! One thing that excites me most now is that I have come into my own, BIG time. The little girl has grown up, thank you dearests for letting me go through the process.
There are so many things unfolding in my life right now that I fear I may not have enough time to deliver. “Did I always know I could write?” I was asked. “No,” I said, “I didn’t know until I persistently put pen on paper.” Having said that, there are so many things each of us don’t know we are capable of doing until we keep at it – practice takes each of us closer to getting it right, not necessarily to a point of perfection. Is there any such thing as that, really? “Congratulations, a friend said; “It is when most of us are winding down that you are revving it up!” No one needs to shut down… It’s not about the time of day or year, it’s just a question of; “How old is your mind”? Each day, we are renewed or burnt to mental ashes according to our inner make up. Just look at the phoenix, it rises from its ashes…Why die before you’re dead?…
