Last year I decided to walk on faith and pursue my dream of starting my own business and begin a blog. This journey has been interesting and filled with many ups and downs. Thankfully there have been more ups then downs. But with that said, I do know this...everyone will not support your dreams and that's okay. But I will continue to push and strive for what I want! The biggest reason for me to change from a reader of blogs to an author of one is this; all the bloggers I once enjoyed were becoming similar in style and content. I noticed the topics were the same and I could not relate to a lot of them like I once did. Did the bloggers change or was it me? It was a little of both. The change for me in the fashion blogs was now they only talked about designer fashions and the makeup blogs centered on various high end cosmetics lines! I think there wasn’t a shift in the blogger’s post there was a shift in my perspective. When I was working full time I didn’t give a real thought to the cost of an item. After buying my house last year, moving and starting a new career, my overindulgence in shoes and clothing were revealed and abruptly stalled! The horror! At first, there was a sad longing to be out in the stores to see, touch and purchase all the lovely wares. But after moving and getting a real eyeful of EEEVVERRRYYTHING I owned! I came to the realization and I must admit it was a slow reality check, but I owned too much of a good thing! I started going through items to purge so I will have room to enjoy our new place but the sad truth is it’s still a process. And so I am still purging and procrastinating but I have never been giddier. I am truly happy and blessed to spend my day doing what I love and I hope you all stay with me while I walk this walk!
Why blog?
