A Whole Year

It’s been a little over a year that I started this website page to post my writing. I decided to open up my mind for the world. Unfiltered, unedited, just a real and raw picture of Rebecca’s soul. I won’t lie and say I haven’t regretted doing this. There’s times when I’ll write something and second-guess myself. I’ll go back to read what I wrote and find flaws everywhere. At times, well…. No one even reads them. But that’s ok. I honestly write for myself, so I don’t keep internalizing certain things. But sometimes, just sometimes, someone will encourage me by saying I encouraged them with what I wrote. I take hiatuses at times because I’ll either forget, get busy, second-guess, whatever the excuse. Like these last few weeks, I’ve genuinely been unmotivated to write anything. I will look at the titles of the blogs I have to update so I can post but I’ll just exit out and not write anything. I still write here and there. Mostly just a few sentences or a paragraph.

This page has been a first step to sharing about me. Trying to do something different. Trying to motivate myself to be a little more creative. I've posted 37 blogs. But like any creative person; there’s blocks that get in the way and have you stuck for what seems like forever.

But here I am. Back on the keyboard. Back on the website. Back to sharing the window to my soul. At times that window get’s a little foggy and dirty. You can’t really see through the glass so people will just walk by. It’ll be a little embarrassing that I haven’t cleaned it and kept up with it. But I’ve learned that it’s ok. I need to stop beating myself up trying to maintain this perfect bloggers image I’ve envisioned in my head. I need to stop overthinking everything I write and everything I do.

So hey there Becca. Happy Blog Anniversary.

PS: Don't stop writing
