Why I blog

I blog purely for myself. I do it to keep track of my thoughts, experiences, interests. Someday I'll look back and read all that I wrote,  and I'll get to see the progress I've made in life, the changes I went through, and all the experiences I've had. I blog because I've always loved writing, Ever since I was a little girl I wrote stories, poems, and my thoughts in journals, which I had an overload of. And till this day it makes me happy. I don't think I would ever pursue anything more than just writing with this, I don't care to earn money with it, I don't care to please or impress people with it, I do it for pure enjoyment and I think pursuing anything else with it will ruin that. I'm an average writer, pretty mediocre, and I'm not trying to prove anything to anyone. But I do share my thoughts with others because maybe in some way God can impact someone through my experiences and thoughts. I see that blogging has become a trend, and almost a competition, and that makes me sad. In this society I wouldn't even consider myself a blogger, just someone who likes to write. So if you do read my blog, I hope you don't have high expectations, and I hope you enjoy it for what it it, just the thoughts of a 21 year old girl getting through life.

Only you can tell yourself that you can't

The only person that can tell you that you can't, is you. I realized this while at the gym one day. All those you're not good enoughs, all those you don't belongs, all those you never wills, and all those you cants, are told by no one other than yourself. Sure others might say these things; but it's you who confirms, you who choses to accept, and believe those things about yourself. You are who you think you are,  you may put up an image for others, but on the inside you're completely who you make yourself up to be. So if you want to be a better person, tell yourself that you can be, if you want to be in shape, show yourself it's possible, if you want to be smart, use your brain, if you want to be beautiful, believe that you are. The possibilities are endless when you let them be. You are your own destruction, you are your own strength. You are your own limits, your own possibilities. No one else can tell you who to be, and how to be.  Never forget that. never let your biggest enemy be yourself.
