I don't know why, but I am afraid to blog. I have been thinking about it a lot lately (blogging) and I realized that I am fearful of sharing too much. My blog has always been a place for me to write and share some of the things I have struggled with in the past (and some current) and I guess I just don't know how much is "sharing too much". I think I have a pretty incredible story and I know there were many people that loved reading what I wrote. The internet is a big and scary place and even though I am not ashamed of my past or what I have gone through, sometimes I just don't know.
I have been reading lately and I feel like I had somehow gotten into the lazy brain mode. I wasn't writing and I wasn't reading for fun. I have always blamed going to graduate school for the reason I stopped reading for pleasure but it's been 12 years since I got my masters (wow!) and I need to retrain my brain to read when I am bored instead of picking up my computer or phone or watching tv. All of the reading I have been doing lately have really motivated me to want to start writing again.
Right about now is when my fear of sharing this blog with everyone starts, but tonight I am going to be brave and just hit publish!
See you soon.
Wahoo! Congratulations! We all need to share our gifts with the world, so be brave. There are people who need to read your words, and those that this might upset are not worth your time.
