Why I Started Blogging & You Should Too

Blogging in 2020 might sound like a contradiction. Isn’t it too late to start a blog, you may be asking… and I wondered that too. So, why I started blogging and why you should too is quite simple…

It may sound contradictory but I don’t blog for blogging’s sake or to make money, instead, I choose to blog as an outlet. If you’ve been considering an outlet for sharing your passions, your art, and your heart then this might be your next right step too.

I started blogging as an outlet, and as a writer, I cannot think of a better place to share my favorite stories with you from my life or my book and movie picks.

This blog is to help you find an outlet too, whether that is learning to blog yourself or to help you find your next adventure in a book or film.

Stories are my favorite thing to share with people. We all need them. To be inspired, to change and to become who we are meant to be.

When you think about your life, do you see a story?

As you sip coffee reading this, you are living a paragraph in the current chapter of your life.

Your story is worth sharing.

It is worth living.

You are worth investing in. Now, is the time to see your life for what it is. Even in those most challenging, trying and tragic seasons – we are becoming.

Never underestimate your becoming.

But be careful to what you will become.

As C.S. Lewis once poetically said, “Every time you make a choice you are turning the central part of you, the part of you that chooses, into something a little different than it was before. And taking your life as a whole, with all your innumerable choices, all your life long you are slowly turning this central thing into a heavenly creature or a hellish creature: either into a creature that is in harmony with God, and with other creatures, and with itself, or else into one that is in a state of war and hatred with God, and with its fellow-creatures, and with itself. To be the one kind of creature is heaven: that is, it is joy and peace and knowledge and power. To be the other means madness, horror, idiocy, rage, impotence, and eternal loneliness. Each of us at each moment is progressing to the one state of the other.”

We cannot choose our circumstances but we can choose who they make us become.
