Honestly, if you asked me a year ago today how I picture myself in the future, I wouldn’t see myself taking as many chances as I do, and putting myself out there as much as I have. In the past I’ve had so much anxiety that I’ve just tried to blend in, stick with the crowd and never take a shot at something that I could fail miserably at, even if I had as much chance of great success. But this year I vowed to step out of my comfort zone, starting with my blog! Don’t get me wrong, I still have a tonne of anxiety, and putting my thoughts, writing, and photos out into the public domain is scary. But I just remind myself that everyone reading my blog are strangers and I shouldn’t care what they think. And the people who I do know that read my blog, really care for me, and I care for them, so there’s no point in feeling nervous about my work. So no, my life isn’t what I pictured a year ago, but I’m so grateful that it isn’t!
