I am actually a very private person. I use to be different, but events in my life changed that. I tend to keep most people at a distance because in my messed up mind, that is easier than being disappointed and hurt. I don't do social media really. There is the occasional Instagram post but Facebook is not something I have enjoyed and since cutting it out, I feel like my life is more peaceful and my relationships are genuine. I am not really the sort of person who enjoys putting myself out there anymore because honestly, it is no ones business and I like it that way.
That is why it has taken me so long to get the courage to do this.
The truth is, I want to help. If my experiences can help others be more educated in certain situations or help others through struggles then I will "Dare Greatly" and be vulnerable as Brene Brown would put it. If you haven't read her books you should. They are pretty much amazing.
I have thought about doing a blog for a while now. In the past month, I have had quite a few people ask me for advice on different things that I would address on here (not knowing I was thinking about this) so I figured I would just do it.
I know that by putting my story out there, it opens me up to scrutiny and judgement. All I ask is, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Please share these experiences to those that might be able to find it helpful.
