Pre-About Me


I am so excited to start blogging… I feel like I’m stepping into a whole new world. Ok so why blogging? Well I’m constantly  having discussions with myself in my head, so I figured why not put that information on paper and share with others. I love to discourse and get feedback and grow from what others are saying or experiencing, anyhow, so I think it will be good for me to put myself out there and see where this goes. I also would like to publish a thing or two in the future and so this is sort of my start in that world to see if I really really like writing as much as I think I do. And furthermore I have nominated myself editor in a few people’s worlds, so why not put my pen where my mouth is and let’s see what I can come up with on my own.

I am hoping to use this blogging forum as a place to express myself and also to gain knowledge about what’s going on in the world. I interact on a deep level with several people and it seems like most of the people in my circle are dealing with career or career issues, relationship problems (no relationship is also considered a problem), life journey stories, family related drama (no one can ever escape this one!) and many other things that we all share. I’ve decided that around age 30 everyone, no matter how successful they are goes through a place of evaluation and figuring out what next….I say around 30 because I know some 40 somethings that are experiencing the same things. It turns out there’s no formula to succeeding in life..there seems to be no formula to even living life. Different people come with different priorities, different opportunities and many many different experiences.

I tend to be on the dramatic side and this often comes out in my writings. I love to tell stories though I’ve been told I don’t know how to tell stories/my stories are not really stories (whatever!) but rather bits of information that I piece together (again, whateverrrr!) so I’m hoping to tell a few through this blog.

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about starting this blog and as usual I’ve mulled over it as much as possible. I decided to start the blogging on November 15, which is a significant date in my world, but I think I’ll explain why on that day. In the meantime since I’m into research I decided to get started before that date with mini entries to get into the habit of blogging.

I really have no set goal for the number of entries or how often I will blog. I just want to share my world with folks around…feel free to invite others to share read along. Even though I never comment on other people’s blog, I really would love for you to respond with thoughts and questions or comments. Please remember to be respectful in all entries and absolutely no bad language.

Thanks for taking the time to get into my head!
