My Time is Now!
Finally! I’m committing to my passion and following through. I tried to create a blog before this one, but I lost motivation and abandoned it. The drive just wasn’t there and other life circumstances got in the way. Every now and then I revisit it just to remind myself of the problems I dealt with a few years ago. The problem with that blog was that I was attempting to complete a 100 Happy Days challenge after a bad breakup with my ex-girlfriend. I just knew that it was going to help heal my broken heart. But it didn’t. I just knew that I would commit to posting once a day every day. But I didn’t. I struggled to get 10 days documented because I was using the blog as a way to ignore my feelings and distract myself. I really needed to devote time and energy into myself and my mental well-being.
These past few years I have done a lot of self-exploration. I spent some time sitting with my depression and processing through my trauma in therapy. Some days I get overwhelmed and tend to fall into negative thoughts, but I try my best to express my emotions through my poetry. Other days I am extremely joyful and thankful for this headache called life because every breath is a blessing. I think I am now in a place to fully commit to a blog and I am not afraid to be vulnerable with the world anymore. Writing, blogging, typing your story can be so empowering because it is your story to tell. I just can’t wait to get started.
