Starting Over.

Every day when we wake up we get to start over with a brand new day. I just want to make my new day count.

I recently joined Medium because I wanted to start writing on a platform that I felt comfortable being a part of and I feel like I’ve found it here. I stumbled upon this website while watching a video about blogging and I feel like this is the place that I’ve been looking for, which makes me a lot happier if I’m honest.

I haven’t been officially writing for a long time. I used to keep little journals that I would write in, but I never gave actual writing a chance. I have been wanting to pursue it for many years but I never did because I never thought I could be good enough for anyone to read my content. I would always create a blog and start posting on it but never follow through and then delete it after a while. I’ve done this for YEARS and I guess I did it because I felt like if I could just start over then I’d do better the next time and somehow be an excellent writer after all of that.

I think it’s safe to say that I’ve found my home and that I’m so thankful to be here. I know that this post was short and sweet but that’s what I wanted for my first one. I’ll probably post an official “first story” soon and when I do I’ll make sure it’s a good one!

Thank you so much for reading my post! Have a great day! :)
