Hello! I've just noticed that for the past 7 years, I've fallen back on writing a blog post. Unfortunately, due to some unprecedented circumstances, I've missed the year of 2020. Luckily, nothing really came up that year, really normal, and bland!
Of course, I'm only kidding. What a year 2020 was, for me and for everyone else. I am so so grateful that I have not directly been impacted by COVID-19 in any serious way. My family and friends are healthy, and I have a roof over my head. I was lucky enough to hold onto my job, and only work from home. We plan to go back next month.
Due to all that went on in 2020, I have become much more attune to myself, and was lucky enough to become aware of some that I was not before! With that came some major mental hardships. I've found myself devoid of any motivation, feeling as if I've just found the key to life, to experiencing many periods of binge eating.
I have so many ideas and stories and things to try out on here due to the past years developments. Up to this point, I've never considered that I could enjoy sharing a lot about what I've been going through. Possibly, if I genuinely wanted to try, I think I could even help others go through the trials and tribulations that young adulthood brings about. I'm sure that could already be a flooded market, but I've yet to see anything going over exactly what I've been through. My parents have also mentioned something similar to that, and you know, I think that there's a chance. Of course, that would take a massive amount of effort and work, which are things I've not done in quite some time. Regardless, I want to begin writing more on here for myself if not to practice writing.
It has been quite some time since I've last written something that wasn't a work email. I am curious to see if my writing style has changed along with the rest of me! So far, it feels just sort of formal. I've noticed my texts to people and old friends have become more formal, and impersonal.
I guess this post will just stick to covering how I may approach this blog for the time being. I could imagine writing "My Thoughts On" different things I've begun to see differently. This would be terrible for quite a long time, I figure. It may never amass to anything worthy of putting out in the world and hat is okay! I used to think sharing anything about yourself was a selfish behavior, though I quickly learned what my true selfish behaviors were, and writing was not one of them!
What an exciting time! I look forward to putting some of my thoughts down. I have no clue if they will impress me, or be so obvious and simple. A lot of what I believe now is common sense to most people. I think the way I approached those discoveries is what could be interesting specifically during this time in adulthood. I am in my head often, for better or worse. So far it has been extremely helpful, though very limiting.
Thinking more about what my target audience could be, I've made an adjustment. I'm an extremely late bloomer when it comes to a lot of core ideas. I was extremely self centered, rude and inconsiderate. I treated the friends I've had in a way I'm not proud of, and just did not consider others in my own actions. Thank goodness I've grown from that, right? It's a work in progress but I'm confident to say I feel like a good person. Perhaps my writing could be centered around people who really need to get their shit together.
Perhaps the book title would have the work F*CK in it, as all self help bookings do. I hate that trend. Check my IG story to see all the ones I found at B&N recently.
Lastly, it has been wonderful reading back past posts. It's really interesting and shocking seeing the changes. How funny was I in high school! Man, that is crazy that it was me writing those posts.
It's getting late, have a good night and we will talk again soon!
Jake
