A little about me

Hopefully a new and expectant beginning

Why this and why now? That would be easy to answer in a way; the why of this would lie in the fact that I enjoy waking up each day with a purpose, ending the day going through everything I have done like bullet points in my head, and swelling with pride in the fact that I had done so much, so yes, I think that would answer the why this. I have always enjoyed writing, except when I’m not filled with anxiety over the blankness of a page and the continual blipping of that single dark line on my laptop screen; it’s a pretty pleasant experience. Writing has gotten me through many things, so I figured why not share some of them, and I guess that would lead up to the why now. The why now would be that it’d been coming for a while, the want to share my work but was further pushed back by my procrastinating tendencies; a therapist told me it was unique to my personality. That one had hit me hard. The fear that I would always procrastinate that a certain part of my life was completely out of my control, I mean I had lived with it so far, but living with something was different from someone declaring it your forever features—but she had quickly followed it up with, “Now that we know what it is, we can work on the things you want to change.” So this is that change; this is an attempt to break free from the normalcy of my personality.

I have always had mini stories floating in my head, stories of growth, heartbreak, heart mend, self-discoveries, pain, loss, and everything else, and this space will serve the purpose of me sharing these stories; instead of living out every scene in my head, I’ll share them here.

I am looking to build a community of similar-minded people, people like me stumbling through life, getting through day by day and smiling at the end of it. I want to build a community of people who can relate to the things I will write about; my writings will range from short stories to poems to sometimes just about feelings. Corrections and new inputs and ideas will be wholly welcomed, although I ask that you be real gentle; I’m not fragile but still. I will be posting at least three times a week, and I hope to improve on this as time goes by.
