Some thoughts I have regarding writing and blogging:

1. I have so many thoughts running in my head but I’m scared to share it in the wide web.

2. At the same time I have this urge to put them somewhere more than mt physical notebooks. Any place where they can stand free on their own and serve as memento of how I think at this age, at this time of my life.

3. I want to be freer when expressing myself in general. Years of shutting myself up to not offend is a hard habit to break. I don’t want to be scared of even talking about my feelings without fear of judgement.

4. It’s actually fun to read other peoples’ blogs thay are very diary/journal type! Used to read a ton of those in the early days of the 2010s. I’m glad to have discovered them again.

5. Just writing in general was a skill I’ve been avoiding for the longest time growing up. Weird, I know. But being the anxious kid that I was, I could not fathom how to even begin writing essays in schools and I always overthought everything. Did I really know fact a, b, or c? Or am I making that up? Do I need to absolutely know everything in order for my opinions to be valid? Ahhhh so much wild things to think of. Now I want to get rid of that doubt. Seems like a small thing but it has been holding me back in a way.

6. People don’t need to read anything I write. I just want to cast it into the void and let it stay there.

7. I hope in a thousand years or so my little blog would be part of a study by future humans (or more haha) of how life was like in 2025. From a 30 year old who just got their shit together.

I don’t think I strive to be the most refined writer out there. I just want my own voice to shine through. I think I can do that.
