“I write because I don’t know what I think until I read what I say.” — Flannery O’Connor

I don’t know why I want to do this.. I was sitting here eating dinner and I had this moment of contemplation. I was thinking about changing my eating habits, its been on my mind for a long time, especially on and off throughout the years but the past 24 hours I suppose I gained some sort of motivation. Anyway, I was having this moment of contemplation about accountability and my lack of it throughout most of my life, especially for things that pertained solely to me and my well being. This spiral of thoughts translated into me logging onto wordpress.

For this blog in its entirety I think I want something that helps to hold me accountable for all of my actions and choices. I’ve slowly been making changes within my life since I turned 25, taking life more seriously. I have so many thoughts running around in my head, some good some bad and I feel like I need a way to get them out. Getting my words out on paper makes me feel like I am present and doing something with my life.

In the past me writing was a dream, I wanted to be a poet, mind you these poems were complete trash. My little notes were nothing to call James Baldwin about, but I tried and I enjoyed it for a while. As the years piled on I slowly got away from writing in general, just for note taking. Now that I have come full circle I think the main goal is for me to just grow as a person and discover who I am and what I want, minus other peoples opinions. This blog is going to be my outlet and my best friend, I am going to use this tool as a way to just vent about everything and anything. Mostly I want this to act as my way of being completely honest with myself and admit when I am wrong or holding myself back.

Please Note…

• There will be a million typos and a few grammatical errors (not sorry)
• I probably will go around in circles sometimes
• I will talk about myself alot and my family
• I will talk about my eating habits and probably be down on myself sometimes but I will also try to be positive
• I will post corny quotes within my diary posts… again not sorry
