Welcome
““Faith is building on what you know is here, so you can reach what you know is there.””
Welcome to Beyond the Field, my personal blog, to share ideas, stories, experiences, and discoveries across various topics with you.
Beyond the Field is inspired by the view behind my home. As the sun rises, an expansive, beautiful vista of grass fields bordered by trees and a babbling creek greets me every morning. Depending on where I stand, I can see the field from over twelve different angles, each providing its own perspective. It is truly the masterpiece of our farm. The view never tires, offering a daily reminder of all that nature and life provides to us and all that we can bring forward to the world and those around us.
The field of life, even with its natural or constructed borders, is wide open. You can choose which direction you would like to run or walk, which hills to climb, and whether your path will meander or stay straight. It’s easy to lose sight of the possibilities and remain confined to the boundaries and lines we draw for ourselves.
At 46 years old, I’m reorienting myself and leaping with the launch of this blog to actively pursue one of my passions—freelance non-fiction writing and creator. I aim to inspire, uplift, provide new perspectives, and maybe make you laugh out loud with stories on living with five sporting dogs to navigating everyday life. I will also share some of my favorite books and podcast discoveries. As we get to know each other, we will evolve and grow, as will this content.
Thank you for joining me on this journey I call life, Beyond the Field.
