Why I started this E- Zine

Sit back, and travel with me.

I discovered my need to write and gather inspiring stories about baseball as I drove on route 80 in Northern New Jersey in February 2004. I started thinking about the movies I have seen and the stories I have read that I loved. Why did I like these stories? What was "My" definition of a great story? I was fixed on finding an answer. I started thinking about the movie "Field of Dreams", one of my all time favorites. Why did I like this corny movie so much? Was Field of Dreams a metaphor for living your field of dreams? Was creating a clearing done to allow the dreams to show up? In the movie they cleared away a crop of corn to build a baseball field. Do we need to clear away some of our own corn fields to see the dreams that capture our hearts and then create a path to reach those dreams? This movie has been an inspiration for me to pursue my baseball dreams.

Following my heart is what I love best about what I am doing.

Field of Dreams is the only movie I have seen in my adult life ( thats if you consider me an adult)that I have been to the movie theater more than once to see.

So I invite you to follow your passion. Whether you are "The Rookie" or "The Natural" what are your "Field of Dreams?" Where can your passion reverberate for you?

I feel so thankful that I have been able to capture my dream at this time. I hope you do as well.
