Post number one of the now 5th year I have had this space, this home to my thoughts and confusions and arguments that make up the tug-of-war that goes on from one day to the next in my head. This place where I have been able to vent and rant and discuss topics that interest, bother or trouble me.
Its amazing, looking back, because I remember the things I wrote five years ago so clearly. Those feelings, those situations and those posts come back to me with ease. I started this blog for no one but myself. I created it as a place to empty my thoughts and concerns and to remind me of these things years later when the memories were not quite so fresh in my mind. I created it to allow me to focus on today, with the security that past memories were safe and could always be reflected upon.
In the past five years a lot has changes; from schools to horses to friends to boyfriends, not to mention my opinion and outlook has grown and become far more developed. I am, technically speaking anyways, an adult now. My preferences have changed, my mind has opened, my understanding of who I am is strong. I have growing to do still, however I know I will be just fine no matter where I end up. I know that I will succeed at what I put my mind to and that no matter where in the world I end up I will make my time there worthwhile and enjoyable.
It took these five years of growing to get me here. All my successes, my failures, my mistakes, my hard work, my insecurities and my lucky guesses. These have created me as I am.
Welcome to 2013; a year in which we have infinite potential if only we focus and use it to the best of our capabilities. This is no different than 2012, but something tells me I'm going to work a little harder in the next 12 months.
You don't have to just take my word for it, however. I'll be here to prove it.
- xx, Kelly.
