Stuck in the Story

I want to post my birth story, I really do, I do... I do??? So, why haven't I posted my story? I feel stuck in the story. What I mean is, what angle to tell...how much detail...how many pictures...do I tell all? There are so many ways to tell a single story!

I feel like I did in college when I had a deadline to write a paper and I'd wait for inspiration. I waited for some surge of energy and sparkle to give to my story.
For now, I think I'll start where I am. I am at 6 weeks postpartum. I have a deeper love for my children and the power innately found in motherhood!!! The power to teach and guide my children is awesome. The divine choice to be a mother and to see my children grow is incredible. I believe there is a cooperative balance between my life and theirs. After all, they came through me, but they are not for me, and belong not to me. (from the song by Sweet Honey in the Rockhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti0rzHq_0xU

My birth story will come sooner, or later. It's my story & it is most meaningful to me. I hope when I share it, someone will find more of what they need to give meaning to their own story. The creative process...I'll make it through... even with all that's distracting me.
