A Writer of Life for Life.

So.. Welcome to my blog! I don’t know if I’ve ever really liked that word. “BLOG”. Maybe I should just say, welcome to my thoughts as they become words. It’s a little longer, but it says what it needs to say.

I have ALWAYS wanted to start a real, lasting blog. I’ve posted things online before that I’ve written. Which sometimes is beneficial, and other times comes with regret. And that’s what I get scared of as a public writer. A blogger is just a public thinker, right? Letting people into your thoughts can be a crazy thing. But I’ve always wanted to be a writer. Always. And sharing what lives in your mind is just a part of the job. I’ve been writing since I could tell my mom what to tell the pen to write. And as soon as I could move it myself, I’ve been writing ever since.

I think writing is one of the most amazing things. You can communicate with people on such a different level. You can talk to YOURSELF better. You keep a record of your life, and you express what’s in your head- lightening the load in your mind. You can discover a part of yourself that you didn’t know was the way it was, and other people can get to know you in ways that other things could never show.

So that’s why I’m finally starting this thing. I can’t wait to see what comes of it. I used to be afraid to post things I write because I feel like no one else will get it, or that it isn’t profound enough, or because I feel completely different the next day. OR that no one would ever want to read it. And even if no one does- it still exists. For me to look back on when I need to remember who I was and what I’ve learned. So, everyone, or just future ME, let the words begin. Hope I can keep you interested..
