Life (Or Something Like It) - #1

Sometimes life does not go as planned. Sometimes you have to let life go forward as you find your bearings (and sometimes that takes a while). Life goes in so many directions, be it by our choice or seemingly by chance, and it can be draining and exhausting. Your inner life can be even crazier, your brain screaming while your heart cowers at the thought of releasing all it thinks and feels. Of releasing the love it wants to give but is terrified to because rejection hurts. All the inner work, all the mental and emotional strength building can take a lot out of you, and this is where I am at today.

Despite August being over and it currently being September 1st, Album Month will be backdated and finished. I am determined to and so it will be, it is just taking time because I choose not to stress myself out and push myself too hard. And that's okay. I don't get paid for this, nor am I an established blog people expect a lot from. As I have expressed before, I just post and share it in case anyone wants to check it out. That's enough for me right now.

I find myself extremely tired and focus is quite challenging, so I will take the moments when they come and write the pieces. It's more important for me to be relaxed and honest when I write my album blurbs, to just be myself and write how I feel in my own way than force myself to be a 'content machine' and try to project something I'm not. (It seems to me that this is the best way for me to go as my piece about Kristeen Young was well received by the artist herself, and I was just myself and going at my own pace.) I write because it's in me to. If it's not happening right now, it will. I'm not getting down on myself about it, and not beating myself up about it is a huge step for me. I'm proud of myself for that and for what I have accomplished so far, and that's how it should be.

Thanks to all of you who have found my social media and followed it here. Welcome! I'm glad to have you! I'd love it if you'd stick around and see what happens. There's a big future out there, and mine will unfold like the wings of a colorful bird.

Take care, everyone! See you soon!
