Well Hello There Reader,
I wanted to create a blog. I think. Maybe. Possibly. But not before the following questions began to run through my head....
Why create a blog? I work 5 days a week, and my 2 days off I barely have time to do anything else other than laundry, cleaning, and what have you, when will I have time? Those 2 days are often separated, off one day, on 2 more days, off another, and the cycle goes on for 7 day periods.
Furthermore, when everything has been said before, and done already, does the world really need another blog? My blog? Who cares? Why Care? Who will ever read this other than myself? Do I have time to read my own blog, let along write it? Do people still actually blog? Do people still actually read blogs, let alone follow them? Who created the word blog? Will saying blog 50 times in a row completely diminish the effectiveness of the word and make you wonder why it's even in a dictionary? IS blog in the dictionary? Do I have a dictionary to check? Do I need a bookcase? Man these shelves are dusty....
STOP.
If you've gotten this far.... without moving on, thank you (I think).
As someone who worries about everything, to a fault, these, among many other questions/worries come to mind when I think about creating a blog. The thing about it is, why worry so much? Does it warrant SO much energy to worry about trivial things? Should I allow those (or is it "these") questions, and the answers to those (or "these) questions stop me from doing something, especially something such as creating a blog? Is worrying about worrying even a thing? Will people read this and assume I am ADD even though I am not? Did I pack a lunch today? Oh shit.... here I go again.
STOP. STOP. STOP. <<< that's for me, not you, please, go on...
If you've gotten this far without abandoning me, I thank you. & I think you.... might like what is to come. (see what I did there? Yea I know... stupid. :) )
This blog is about me. What I have learned. As a worrier, a person with extreme anxiety, and many, many other troubles, I have decided to write about them, openly, for ANYONE, be it to help them, to entertain them (as one would definitely be entertained regarding the posts that will follow if they are not a worrier), to bore them, to help them past time, to give them insight about life, or to simply have a good laugh. This blog is not for me. It's not so I can rant about how great I am, and how I believe you should care about the trivial things I am doing, such as buying a new sweater, or what restaurant I decided on this time. No. This blog is intended to be something for everyone. Something everyone can take a piece of, and have it in their own lives to remember when the chips are down, or stacked.
When I was saying them: to entertain them, to bore them, to help the, etc., should I have used the word "you" instead?
Never mind.
I've had a very interesting life. And life, as it would seem, keeps getting interesting.
I would like to put this information out into the world, for better or worse, so people can read, and again, take what they will from it. I am not sure if that's the purpose of a "blog", but that's my purpose. From current events, to past events, I will try to update this page regularly. I promise nothing short of a great read, if not much, much more. I love to write, and I want to share what I have learned and have yet to learn.
It truly is, Me Or: How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Blog.
Until next time....
