Being open ain't easy

 

Making this post was not easy. In fact, this blog is one of the hardest things I've done in a while. Writing a blog is challenging. It is for me because I don't know what to write about. I wonder,would anyone be interested in what happened in my life?  Why would they be interested in what I thought or what I feel.  People who do blogging are really talented people to me, gifted to be able to do it. Personally, I don't know how much to share.  

   I've been conditioned for many years, not to share. I was taught to mind my own business, I was taught as a child to stay in my own lane, don't let other people in my business, which is all good advice. But now with this new internet age the ability to open up and be transparent can be interesting. I've read things from other people that I found to be interesting.  

Not knowing where to start is another obstacle . What area of life should I talk about? physical life, spiritual life, financial life, my musical life. Just where to start? Who gives a damn. But the most important thing for me to keep in mind is why do any of this blogging in the first place.  

The biggest thing I get from it is therapy. It feels good to go up against my grain. It is good to break out of my box. It requires a breakthrough in order to write about myself . It’s good therapy for me. It allows a peek into myself.  Taking a peek. I think it is good for me to write from time to time. Forces me to face my fears. It feels good to break through and do something that's kind of holding you back. It feels good to get out of my own way. 

  I remember one person saying that if life is worth living, then it is worth writing down. And life is definitely worth living. I love my life. So let's write about it and sing songs about it. And thank you for checking it out. Are you writing a diary and blogging? How do you feel about it ?
