Pilot Episode


Well. I guess I decided to start blogging again. About three or four years have gone by and much growth has been had since the days of xanga. There are several new happening in my life right now, and I consider that to be a good thing. great in fact.

About a semester ago I changed my path. I think I like this path better, but of course that pesky voice of doubt likes to whisper in my ear every now and again. I've been doing everything I can to immerse myself in this new journey, as I'm sure you all know. While I sometimes doubt the new career, I don't doubt the decision to change. I love what has come from it. The major-swap was just the catalyst I needed to shake my core and motivate me. It is from this one big change that SO much else has sprouted. I have discovered that working with people is absolutely what I want to be doing, in whatever form that may come. I lost myself for several years and I'm slowly finding my way back to the person I want to be. The end of highschool and the first two years of college were absolutely rough for me. Not in an F my life, tragic things happened to me, feel sorry for me sort of way. More like a wow I never really thought about what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, became really anxious and insecure, don't know who I am, didn't adjust well to the change I thought I wanted so badly sort of way. There are some things about yourself that you may never be able to change and I'm accepting of that. I also know that we have the power to reinvent ourselves daily. Now I'm not saying that is what I plan on doing, but it's nice to be reminded that we do have control over the majority of who we want to be and how we want to be perceived (perception is a totally separate issue that I am constantly struggling with and will get to a later date). I challenge you to find one thing in your life that you don't like, and just eliminate it starting tomorrow (of course it's not always that simple). 

Time for bed now, but next post I plan to elaborate on all these changes that have sprouted from the obvious, tangible one.
