So. It. Begins

It is true that we all have to begin somewhere.

Why am I writing this? Why after so long thinking about it, stewing, agonising, second-guessing, making excuses am I committing to finally putting something (and myself) ‘out there’? I think I may finally have come to the place where not taking the leap - no matter how amateurish or lacking it may be, may just now be worse than actually writing/doing SOMEthing.

There is a person I want to be, imagine myself being, hope to be - and that person scoffs (HA!) at writing a blogpost. That person writes because she loves writing; she writes because that is her way of sifting and sorting and trying to find meaning; it is her way of capturing moments - compiling them into memories. By taking this step into what seems such a foggy and daunting abyss - I hope to become closer to and align with that ‘other’ me. Here’s to the adventure!
