Well, this feels familiar… I have been here before, but this time I hope to stay for good. To blog has always seemed intimidating to me, but somehow I have come to terms with what I have to offer (which may be nothing, but might be something to someone even if that person is me) and I am looking forward to some shared reading experiences with other people who crave to see some black and white letters on a screen.
I have had my fair share of blogging experiences. Once, I had a beauty blog to accompany my makeup/beauty based YouTube channel. It lasted for awhile and was fun, but I went to college and life got busy and what eyeshadow I wore on a Monday suddenly seemed very vapid.
Then there was that time I made a blog to document my “giving up” of text messaging for 30 days – I had a house phone installed and the whole shebang. The blog was for a school project, so it died shortly after the semester ended and my presentation was successfully completed.
Right now, this blog IS – it is in existence and I am invested in writing and producing my words. For now, I am not labeling what this is – life is already too full of labels and things (and people) that refuse to be labeled – so… read if you want, comment if you like, and let’s get to know each other.
Honesty is a good way to start a blog. The scary part of writing a blog comes from realizing you finally have your pulpit to the world and then realizing, “OMG, what do I have to say to the world? What can I say that hasn’t been said a million times already?”
Then, you realize you are all you need. Your experience is enough. It is valid. You are valid. You matter. And, that’s enough to get started. 😎
