A Note About My Writing

Some people write blogs about their day. They describe whatever happened that day using figurative language, sensory detail, and descriptive words so you feel like you're watching their day unfold. Some people write blogs about their thoughts. Others write about certain points during their day that inspire them. I'm taking a different route.

I write about the things that come to mind. Not just, "What's for dinner?" or, "What time is rehearsal?". I write about certain things that someone said or did to inspire me to think. And then I write. You will almost never see me tell a story about my day. You won't hear, "I went to the mall with my friends, and it made me think...". You won't ever on this blog see me explain an event that happened that day simply because I thought the event was interesting. On the other hand, you will hear me say something about what someone said or did. And then you'll hear my opinions and thoughts on it. I feel like if I'm making a blog, taking time to write it, and then you taking time to read it, it should be about something that is gravely important to me, or was stuck in my mind for days. Not something you really don't care so much about.

So if you're looking to learn about my day, or who I am, or my interests, you shouldn't look to find it here. What you'll be learning on this is what I think, what I feel, and what I believe. So you'll be taking a look inside my brain. I don't expect to inspire anyone to go and make a huge difference in the world or anything, but maybe you'll think of some things differently. And if you know me, maybe you'll think of me differently.
