A Glimpse Inside My Life

Everyone has a certain way they portray their personal life on social media; whether the representation they present is accurate or not, there is so much more depth in a human than a one sentence Instagram caption or a picture of them on vacation. I can admit to myself I have posted a picture that made it seem I was thriving, when actually inside I was at the lowest point in my life thus far. Writing has been something that I value in my life. It keeps me level headed, helps me express emotion that I do not want to show, and allows me to dive into my true soul with no one there to judge me. If you know me personally, you may not have pegged me as the type to have 100 journals at home filled up with my every thought. I have decided it was time to follow through with something I have always wanted to do, start a blog! I had fears of being judged, although I like to think I don't care what others say, I am human and negative opinions get to me sometimes. I also felt that my writing may not be strong enough to post in the pubic eye. I came to the conclusion I would always have an excuse why not to do it, so here I am. I want this to be a safe place, like my personal journal but public (obviously no tea though... well maybe). Even if this reaches one person and makes them smile or feel like they can relate to me in anyway I will be happy. I think as a girl in college there is a whole lot to talk about and unpack, so welcome friends lets dive in!
