New Beginnings
Hello all! First off, it's been far too long since I have been writing on hear. This summer has been a journey of growth and learning, I have debated all summer to post or not but I have decided to get back into it. So hear it goes, I will be posting some posts that I have written over the summer as well as new ones, it is a fresh start. I have discovered a new way for this blog, this blog is now about life and being authentic. A place to share the journey of life that we all have from my perspective, some with trials and joys and everything in between. I hope you join me in seeing the world one day at a time. Even if you don't I hope that this is a place where someone's thoughts and heart is shared with authenticity.
Secondly, I have a question. What are you afraid of? All through life at some point we have been asked what we are afraid of as a person? Some people say snakes, death, public speaking. When I have been asked this question I usually answer rats or say nothing really, but in all reality deep down I know there is something. Though my whole life I have been known as a pretty fearless person, which I am the girl who took her first steps in grass full of stickers, not afraid to jump out of planes, or go up to a stranger to speak, but in reality I'm afraid of letting go. Letting go of the walls that I have built up to cover the mistakes that I have made, the walls of being myself. My whole life I have been told I am not one to be afraid of being myself, but over the past few years I have realized that in some ways I am, I have allowed the walls of the self conscious to build up, and block the things I would have done without a second thought. From meeting new people, to taking opportunities that I have been wanting for a long time, yet when I receive them I blame it on something and don't take that chance. Yes, I know I maybe contradicting myself from things that I have said before or that I will say in upcoming posts. But, that is life we are all afraid of something at some point even when we don't want to admit it, and we can easily contradict ourselves at some point or another, Yet, that is what AUTHENTICITY is all about. I have discovered that it is time of unlocking those locks and tearing those walls down and allowing ourselves to let go from the things we have been hiding. Whether it is an opportunity to do something you have been so wanting, spending time with an elderly family member, sending an apology to an old friend. It starts with something small, and each little step will turn into something you may never dream of. It is OKAY to let go, because the Lord will never let you out of His sight, He has you in the palm of His hand, ALWAYS. Let go of that little lock, be yourself and trust the sunrise.
--- I will be continuing this post about letting down the walls in a different post.
Until next time,
