From the challenge of my therapist this blog is created. Heavenly Father has blessed me with a gift of poetry and writing. This blog will challenge me to embrace that gift and share it with the world. I have feared my gift for so long; I haven't been afraid of failure instead I fear succeeding beyond my own understanding. It has been hard for me to accept my gift for fear of pride. This experience will embrace my humility and share my gift with you. Thank you for coming on this journey with me.

And so it begins . . .
Here is my introduction to the blog world. This stems from my inability to look at imperfect handwriting in my journaling. I was a youth that practiced her handwriting every summer when I wasn't in school. My perfectionism has stopped me from keeping a record of my life journey. Recently, I have started a personal journey of therapy and medication to alleviate my overwhelming feelings of depression. Through my childhood and young adult years I have struggled with my depression, resulting in the formation of walls and other negative coping skills. What I hope to get out of this blog is the ability to love myself for the child of God I am. Also, to keep a record of my spiritual journey.

Alecia,
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing woman and I am blessed to count you among my very small circle of friends. I have never been the type to collect friends. I choose my friends very carefully and I can count my friends on two hands. Some friends are not part of my life any longer but I still love and respect them and I always will.
Thank you for the friendship you have shown me, and I wish you well on your journey of self mastery. I have traveled far on my own journey and I believe I can relate to at least some of your challenge on a very personal level. It does get easier and the blessings of it will remain with you forever.
Carry on and I will support you in any way I can as you make your way.
Nathan
