From the beginning ...
Dear Reader
Where do I start? What am I going to say? Who even cares?
For me, starting a blog is a daunting process ... I'm putting myself out there and showing my raw vulnerability to the world.
What am I even going to be talking about anyway ... and who really cares?
This blog is about my rambling and the story of my life.
Who I am, what's shaped me and where I want to go.
When I first thought about creating this blog I thought for a long time about what my story could be, is it even interesting or compelling?
I have lived a charmed life, I've had a great childhood within a loving family. We didn't have any struggles financially when I was growing up and I was always safe, warm and well cared for.
I haven't really done anything super exciting or dangerous in my life that would make for compelling reading - I'm just me. Your run of the mill everyday 40+ something working mother, wife, daughter, aunty, sister, cousin, friend and foe who is fast approaching the door of my 50's.
But then I really thought about it ... like, really thought about it ... and yes, I am me!
That is what makes me unique. I have done things that maybe some of you haven't.
I have had experiences that some of you may wish you have had or that others are grateful that they haven't had.
I know things that maybe could help you.
I have seen things that could be a warning to you ...
or ...
I could just entertain you with my rambling.
I have a story ...
I have lived, and am living a life of wonder, love, excitement, boredom, pain and fear ... plus so much more.
This is the story of ME ...
I am a procrastinator (man I'm really gonna have to learn how to spell that word).
I am animated (apparently I didn't talk for the first 3 years of my life and then once I started nothing could shut me up).
Join me on my journey of self discovery and change.
Let me share with you my thoughts and memories of where I have come from, where I am now and where I want to go.
I feel I'm sitting on the precipice of great change and I want to share that with you all ... show that change is good ... it can happen anytime and it is worth it ...
So now I am going to stop procrastinating and I'm just gonna do it ... so here goes nothing.
Hold my hand ... close your eyes and jump with me.
