A few months ago I was at Kroger with my family and someone recognized me from Instagram ( I was just as shocked as you are LOL!) I wish I had gotten her name but I was so far thrown off that I was not thinking clearly. Hi GF, I hope you are reading this cause you sparked something inside of me! This encounter made me think about a few things: I reach more people than I think I do, I am memorable, and I am definitely not using this platform to its advantage. I started this blog with dreams of it becoming something that helps me express myself and for it to become something that people can relate to. I have had this blog for so long (at least 2 years or more) but I have not been giving it my all because of FEAR y’all!!! I am definitely not the type to really care what people think but realistically we all care what people think. A few of my fears are that you all will judge the shit out of me LOL, that I will maybe say the wrong thing, expose too much and I fear that I won’t be liked. I KNOW its nuts but I be in my own head way too much. But then I have a chat with myself and receive all these messages from GOD as he has me scroll pass a post on Instagram that slaps me in the face and gives me a reality check. Today’s slap in the face comes from Tina @herlifesparkles the post said “Sis, you’re not a perfectionist, you’re a procrastinator. People with half your ability are making serious waves because they simply decided to go for it. “ If that doesn’t get you together idk what will! SO here I am going for it and writing this blog! I’m making a vow to take more chances, practice balance in my life and just go for it!!! What are your fears? How will you get past them?
