It is said that you should receive something made of wood when you celebrate your five year anniversary. On July 19th, 2018 I posted my first ever blog. It wasn’t much but it was the first time I had done anything like that and I was so proud of me. It was then that I decided to write about life. It’s been five years and I have done a post every single week since July 2018.
I’m proud of me. 🙌🏽. Many times I have felt like stopping but I carried on. It’s then that I have to decide am I doing it for the likes or for the love. I decided that it was for the love. I really love writing. Is this what I want to continue doing forever? I’m not certain. I know it’s not as exciting as it once was but why stop? I realize that I just have to spin it in a way that still makes it exciting for me. It doesn’t matter if no one reads it as long as I continue. One day I will be a overnight sensation. 🤷🏽♀️. Many times I would wonder if I would run out of material to create a blog, but I would remember my stepmother saying there is so much out there to write about and it seems highly unlikely that I would run out of topics. I guess she’s right.
Can you imagine doing this for five years? The thing is I still don’t believe it’s been that long. I even counted on my fingers to see if I was right, no abacus 😏. I was right, it’s been five years and it’s been interesting. Life has been filled with bills and valleys. I have rolled with the punches and it’s turned out ok. When I look back and think that if I hadn’t started I would not be here and that’s when you have to know that the first step is the most important. You just have to start. Nothing tried, nothing gained. As I write this I think about some other things I want to do and know that I just have to go do them. It doesn’t mean that I stop this. I don’t have to as it’s now a part of me. It’s now a habit. Imagine that, writing has become a habit. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s great or not as long as I write something. Sometimes it’s short, sometimes it’s longer but as long as I move. As long as I get up and step towards the light. I’m glad I never just talked about blogging but actually did. So now it’s time to do the video. I promised Duane I will do it. It won’t be long but I will do it just as I started this. I just did it one night. Never knew what I was doing but it turned out ok. 🤔
Let me know as I really want to know what you are thinking, and I know others do too. Try commenting 👍🏽, but if you are not comfortable, reach out to me via any medium. Your comments let me know how you feel and very often give me a total different perspective on the topic. 😉. And you can never tell your comment might help others.
Always remember life is for living and you must always live your best life. #lifeisforliving #liveyourbestlife #gratefulforlife #faithgreaterthanfear
