I was cleaning out my Google Drive and found some old writings. Opening one called “Blog Post 4,” my first thought was, “Did I write this?” I backed out to check the date and make sure it was really mine, not something by someone else with my name. I sat there wondering if I had posted it somewhere. As I kept reading, I realized, Oh yeah, this is definitely me. I cringed as I read because I was embarrassed by the words. Y’all, I was so ashamed! Maybe I’ll post them here and follow up on each piece to show how my views and feelings about the topics have evolved. I’m still sitting here trying to remember why.

I looked at another document titled “My Book.” Like girl, were you trying to write a book? After graduating from undergrad at Valdosta State, I have held several different jobs. I was a receptionist at Georgia State School of Law. While I was there, I applied to Georgia State’s journalism undergrad program. I got in, but I never went. I ended up quitting as a receptionist and becoming a flight attendant. I was just out here doing anything and everything!! I say all that to say these writings I found are over 10 years old!!! 

I really am laughing, because here I am back again. What am I doing? I have no clue. Where will this lead? Who knows. Will it phase out again? Maybe. I am just following my intuition. I told myself to be more intentional about listening to myself. So let’s take this new trip and find comfort in just appreciating the journey.
