life is…

Interesting. It’s beautiful, wild, untamable. You cannot control life, even when you think you can. The future holds things unbeknownst to you and I, and learning to allow life to flow as it does and to accept it as it comes is one of the lessons I feel that I’ve had to learn through my own life trials.

I started this blog as a means to create and connect. Starting a blog has been something I’ve wanted to do for the last 15 years of my life. I had a few tumblr accounts that served their purpose, but in this phase of my life - I wanted something with more permanence and meaning. I want to share myself and my story through my words and photos. I want to allow myself a space to get vulnerable and create something that I am able to reflect back on in years to come.

If you want to get to know me - the real me - this is the place.

The blog may lack direction in some points. It may be scattered, and my entries may jump from life point to life point. But that’s okay - because this blog is meant to be my safe space. It doesn’t have to make sense. It doesn’t have to be perfect. I am not perfect. When I was 15, I started writing a book that I had called ‘Shooting for Perfection’ and it was based on my life experience to date. 15 year old me would have never assumed that I’d be 29, single, in the career field I’m in, and she definitely wouldn’t have guessed that I didn’t turn out to be close to perfect.

Welcome to the blog. It’s currently under construction ;)
