I've had this blog for years.
I think I've had it since the beginning of my adulthood - back when everything seemed so easy and trivial. Mannnn, reminiscing about the year 2010 makes me miss the simpleness of it all. My rent was only $350, I was working part-time at a movie store, figuring out my footing in the world, and making the most of what I had. No car? That's fine - I can walk to work. No money for food? Ramen-in-a-cup is my favorite. No goals? I truly knew how to live in the moment back then I think and I didn't have many life experiences to compare anything to so I was content.
Fast-forward 6, almost 7 years later and here I am. Writing another entry in a blog that I have had an on-again/off-again relationship with for all of my young adulthood. Maybe in a couple months, I'll have an emotional bout and log back in to write or reminisce. Or maybe I'll actually stick with it this time. In six years I have had a lot of life experiences. I have created a lot of memories and learned a lot of things. Hell, just in the past year I've learned a lot and had a lot of things change...not that I'd particularly like to rehash that right now. I've done a good job of moving on and moving forward from everything thats happened in the past 10 months. It was a whirlwind but I escaped the storm wet but not drenched. If that makes sense. I probably could have used a rain-coat or headed the thunderstorm watch or something, but I survived and thats all that matters.
Writing calms me down. Or typing it all out as it may be. It allows me a more accessible platform to get everything out and organize my thoughts. At the very least, it is entertaining to read a year or two from now when things have completely 180'd in my life again.
