Trying Something New

There is just something therapeutic about writing down your thoughts and feelings. And it doesn't even matter if anyone else reads them, that's not what is important, although I often think about what it would be like to have my words mean something to someone else, to last the tests of times and affect, encourage, and strengthen generations to come. But the simple act of writing them down so that you have them in front of your face and you can read them back over and over again is special to say the least. It immortalizes the joyous feelings and heals the hurt, allowing you to look back at your growth and smile. And so that is exactly what this is. It is me writing down my random thoughts and feelings. It's me sharing my adventures and struggles and triumphs. And it is me figuring out who I am and how to be just that in this crazy world. It is me trying something new. Well I simply adore quotes and song lyrics and how they always seem to say what I want to in ways I never could, and so I will leave with a quote from one of my very best friends...she said to "Treat every day like the start of a new year. Consistently turn your judging eye away from those around you and look deep within yourself. Are you living up to your potential? Every waking moment is a time that could be used to grow and become what you want. Don't waste it." and this is exactly what I plan to do.
