Blogging Bug

Why did I decide to blog if the online world is already filled with awesome and interesting bloggers? And what would I have to say that would be worth reading? We all know the online world can be quite intimidating, especially when you are putting yourself out there for all to see. 

However, I feel this is something I would really enjoy and honestly, it just feels "right". You could say I have the blogging bug.

 I have always enjoyed writing though writing has looked different for me in different seasons of life. It's helped me in processing life and its all its colorful lessons, as well as helped me remember the things I never want to let slip away.

It all started with my keeping a diary when I was 9 years old. 

Then I started trying out poetry after falling in love with it in English literature class.

At 16, that kind of transitioned into writing songs once I knew a few chords on the guitar. 

Needless to say, a lot has happened since as life has gotten a lot busier. Writing  took a back seat and for good reason. Simply put, I needed to be more present.

Moving on to the "now', I find myself having so many internal conversations lately that I feel the need to write them down.

So I'm just going to be sharing life and the personal lessons learned "out loud" with you all and yes, making myself vulnerable by sharing my journey and all that entails - the struggles, the lessons, the joys, the uncertain, and the certain. 

Welcome to my blog.
