Operating from a place of purpose & passion
Back when the internet was very cult-like and it truly felt like a way to escape reality and connect with people from all over the world. Back when Tumblr had a rule where you told people not to go on Tumblr because it had viruses. Come to find it was one of the most accepting and chill places of all time. This place is where I learned more about myself and connected with people who felt what I was feeling. I had never been so vulnerable in my life but I didn’t realize it back then.
Although my old posts were immature, kinda messed up and biased...it still came from a real place. Even at that age I was highly empathetic. A lot of the things I wrote came from a place of pain and feeling like I was inferior to others because society favored “their” qualities and skill sets over mine. I felt like I was speaking for people others who were afraid to speak up and express themselves. I received what felt like an overwhelming amount of support from people here. Then I started writing a lot of the same things on Facebook and that was a shit show, but I didn’t care because I truly believed what I was saying. I was confrontational and daring. Some people agreed and some didn’t.
Why am I even talking about any of this stuff? Well, I’ve finally moved into a space where I decided to devote time to writing again. Not out of obligation, but out of a place of pure love for this medium of expression.
I have changed a whole lot from when I used to be on here every day. I still and will always speak from a place of passion. Now I’m more understanding, less angry, more knowledgeable and more empathetic.
You guys will be the first to know this, I’m going to be posting again every Friday night starting in March. I made sure I would make time to write every week. If I end up writing more and feel like I can post more, I’d love to post twice a week.
If anyone sees this, much love to you <3.
