I have silently thought about being a writer. I may have expressed this thought to a few close people but the point is I am not quite sure what it takes to be a writer. I'd be lying if I said I haven't thought of plots for a book or writing a memoir/essay style book. From time to time while running, thinking about my life, doing errands or laughing with friends I have these thoughts that are usually deeper than the moment at hand. I'm not trying to say that I am the next philosophical genius but I think about life a lot. I've wanted a place to express these thoughts so I keep a journal with me and it doesn't have the lame day to day stuff that's happening written in it. Sometimes it's lyrics to a song, thoughts I have in the moment or a picture that I just want to draw. Whenever something that resembles inspiration strikes me I write it down.
But the things about being inspired is sometimes you want to connect with other people. There are other social media outlets I could express myself on but the point is I want to have an outlet without shouting out "Hey look how awesome I am! I have amazing deep thoughts and I think you should all know it!!!" Totally not my style. So here it is. A blog. Not about my daily boring life but I plan to use it as my virtual journal. Some writing may be longer than others, it may be quotes that I've found interesting but whatever it is it will be something that has had an impact on me.
If my randomness spikes your interest feel free to follow me on this journey of trying to understand myself and life.
