You may have noticed the lack of content from the blog this year. However, that doesn’t mean I’m at all giving up on writing. Here’s what is keeping me from my passion project.
1) I only have my phone to work from and the app limits me from what I really want to do with this platform. After talking with my cousin at our family reunion a few weeks ago, I am going to purchase a Chromebook which should help me get more content out. It’ll also be nice to have for those times when I want to attend Toastmasters meetings virtually.
2) I feel that sometimes my life is too simple to blog about. If I can be real for a minute, my life is not that interesting, or at least I think that. Coming out as “non-binary” brought some spark into my life but I feel as if I’m doing this alone most days. I almost gave up doing this but after hearing how much I inspired my friends and family, I’ve decided to keep it going. Beauty is about loving yourself, not caring about what others think.
3) I’ve spent 2022 feeling somewhat depressed. Maybe it’s because I’m no longer at a job I was familiar with for 13 years, or because I don’t feel I get the support I do for living my gender nonconforming life the way I do. Maybe it’s 2020 showing up a few years late, or it’s this crazy senate and gubernatorial race in PA. I know who I’m voting for. But it’s started to lift as I’ve learned to love myself and embrace my beauty. I’ll keep it going and look forward to a fun 2023.
