&lt;h3 style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.monicagerges.com/&quot;&gt;I&#39;M MOVING!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Reflective Rambling has been home to my wandering mind and stream-of-consciousness thoughts for years, but it&#39;s time for a change. It&#39;s time for bigger challenges and new adventures&amp;nbsp;and being a big kid.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Given&amp;nbsp;my strange love for words, I&#39;ve decided to start freelancing as a wordsmith - that is, an all-around linguistic miracle-worker. That way, I can words&amp;nbsp;as much as I want. However, in the process,&amp;nbsp;Reflective Rambling is temporarily shutting down and posts have been removed, but that doesn&#39;t mean that I&#39;m going to stop writing.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h3 style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;I will not stop writing. I&#39;m only relocating.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.monicagerges.com/&quot;&gt;The new home to my endless not-so-internal monologue&amp;nbsp;is right here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
You&#39;ve been an incredible readership in supporting me to keep Reflective Rambling running. Now I&#39;m seeking your support in keeping Monica Gerges running. That&#39;s me, by the way. As I transition into freelancing and as I give Reflective Rambling its new home - with old posts, revamped posts, and new posts&amp;nbsp;coming your way&amp;nbsp;- I ask for your support in the same simple ways you&#39;ve supported me over here...&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
1. I have a new &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.facebook.com/MonicaGergesWordsmith&quot;&gt;Facebook page&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;where I&#39;ll be posting all my updates; please &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.facebook.com/MonicaGergesWordsmith&quot;&gt;like it&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
2. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.monicagerges.com/blog&quot;&gt;Continue reading&lt;/a&gt; the crazy things I put to paper.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
3. Spread the word.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
In a moment of complete vulnerability, it&#39;s nerve-wracking and thrilling and overwhelming to be taking such a seemingly small step. I&#39;m not just relocating my blog and claiming my domain; I&#39;m declaring myself a writer. I&#39;m giving myself a title: wordsmith. And that&#39;s scary. And exciting. And scary.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h3 style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.monicagerges.com/&quot;&gt;Here goes!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
