I started this blog on February 23rd, 2020. A year has gone by and I wanted to let you know my thoughts about starting this blog. A former friend of mine suggested I focus on my passion, art, and for me therapy - writing, so I did. I jumped in at full force and haven't stopped. Who knew blogging was for me. It is mostly my personal thoughts, feelings, and most importantly my OPINION. This is where I make sure to distinguish facts from lack of sourcing.
The blog has been therapeutic, which i have mentioned numerous times because it gives me something to focus on. The date I published the blog also is significant so I will quickly mention it. It happened to fall on President's day. That was the day I got my tattoos. I mention this because of their meaning. One of the initials of my mother who I love dearly. Yes, she is still alive. I chose to honor her while she is living. The other is a wolf which I believe to be my spirit animal. Like the wolf I can go on these adventures off on my own, but also can come home to my pack. This is who I am. Someone who adjusts accordingly to be able to spread my wings and soar.
I say this to highlight, one (a person/individual) can only find themselves by exploring the world. This is a concept my mother instilled in me early. I tell people all the time, my favorite thing to do is travel. On my trips, I have met tons of lovely people. I have so many strong and unique memories. By writing this blog, I was also able to keep sane during the lock-down. Therapy was apart of that process to, but my therapist liked I took the initiative to do something creative and release pent up anger.
That made me happy. The most significant thing about this blog is it is also apart of my legacy. Long when I am gone, hopefully someone will have digitalized it and it can be stored. It can be read along side my books, or before, or perhaps after because a person I was able to connect to or touch; wanted to learn more about me. This seems silly to consider for future use, but it can happen. Anything can. That is the beauty of life.
