I keep considering different directions to begin this first entry, like, trying different quotes that depict the debate I had with myself over starting a blog, or attempting to start off with an interesting topic that may lead in to how I finally convinced myself to write today. Truthfully, there is no way to make this sound any better and I am even having trouble accepting the fact that I wanted to do this, but ultimately I feel good about it. I have been reading many blogs lately, mostly written by people I know. I began to realize that I like the idea for the same reason that I am sure many others do. A blog can be your very own. I appreciate that you can write whatever you wish, even if no one will want to read it (which, lets face it, is more then likely). My blog will be mostly as titled, personal revelations and periodic interests. These general topics are what I intended to indulge on, to start myself off.
My revelations are going to, hopefully,stay pretty general. I am not here trying to write about my personal issues and how I have worked through them or how i need to. I do not want this blog to be a tell all for anyone to read. I will also be trying not to include my daily life, this is not my journal. I suppose I could walk through my days as I blog, but I am pretty sure I would easily bore myself. My days are quite repetitive and more then likely uneventful. Revelations that I usually want to share tend to be some sort of new understandings, simple realizations that I may have over analyzed, or any kind of accepting/understanding I think I have come to. I will be honest and say this first, I will not be surprised when I get a bit carried away.I intend to keep the blog in some sort of direction, but, this could quickly change.
Knowing that I might venture outside of my "strictly general revelations" guideline is exactly why the title includes my periodic interests. As i said before, what I like about blogs is that it can be whatever you want it to be, just as this blog will be what I want. If I know myself like I think I do, I will more then likely take some unplanned turns depending on my mood day-to-day. I apologize in advance for the following possible occurrences: experimental poetry, random rants about my day, short stories about things I find funny, stories about things that may have happened, and stories about daily decision i find interesting, posts of links/videos/tales that my dad keeps forwarding me, confusing/concerning mood swings, or neglect for the blog in general. Basically, all that i am trying to say is that this is what it is.
I am going to try to keep in mind that someone might actually be reading this! With that said, I will try my best to write on general and relatable topics for the most part. I do hope if anyone does read this, especially if it is someone who knows me, that when I do venture out and write about my daily life, or a feeling of some sort, that concern is not immediately dropped.When I have written in the past, my thoughts have tended to worry the people I am close to, probably because I do not always express them. Keep in mind they are just thoughts. Any revelations will more then likely change after some new experience, or even after giving it some time. I will enjoy constructive criticism and comments of any sort, in fact I hope for it! If I can spark any sort of discussion or if i get any sort of reaction I am sure it will make me more then excited. I will do my best to keep an open mind. Now, I believe I have said all I intended to say. I have dared to blog, and i belive this could turn out well!
