from me to me

Currently listening to: The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get – Morrissey

There are a reasons why I do it:

• memory keeping, although my mind is sharp, one day my memory will go fuzzy and I’d like to have this to reference back to.  If I don’t take a pic/video or write about it, did it even really happen?
• I’m naturally a low key person but my mind is loud AF.
• journaling is good for the soul.   It’s a cathartic release.
• I’m having a soft come back, I used to blog before but I stopped due to unforeseen circumstances.  I think I’ve learned from my past mistakes to make this more enjoyable.
• I also wanted to improve my writing skills.  I have different styles and wanted to see which one I felt the most comfortable with.
• as much as I love technology and AI, I want to use my own skillset and mind to create content, authenticity is important to me.
• people have specific niches or they’re an authority on topics.  My niche is me.  That’s something no one else can have. I can write about me, my experiences, innermost thoughts, and interests.  I do enjoy getting feedback and advice from readers as well.
• meeting new people through this community.  Like who would have thought that a woman from India would be interested in what I had to write?  Or that someone could send me words of encouragement or condolences through this platform?  It’s very motivating and uplifting and that’s the kind of positivity I need in my life.  BTW, if you enjoy reading, I’d encourage you to check out Reflections by Iba (hope it’s okay that I tagged her).
