Ever wonder what the world would look like if you didn’t have to consider money? What would you do, what would your day look like. Would you be stressing about everyday things like you do now? Or would you be exploring OR learning new things OR making friends OR all of the above and more?
I think about things like this on a regular basis. Thinking about these things lead me to following people online, that live the way I would like to live. Some of them share how to do what they do, and how to live like they do. Long story short, I’m emulating what some of these successful people do, and one of those things is writing blogs. Hence here is my first blog. Monkey see monkey do.
That’s reason one for starting this page. There is another reason I wanted to start a blog. Recently I have been diagnosed with stage 2.5 Hodgkin Lymphoma. Yes I did say stage 2.5. More about that another time. So to help keep everyone up to date, I figured I could have updates in one place and send everyone there. That then would be reason two. I guess there are many more reasons I could list like; I like to write but never do, now I can; and it’s a good way to get thoughts out of my head and into the real world. Not sure who that would scare more, you or me.
This is probably enough for a first blog. When I was setting this up I was thinking, what am I going to write? Almost 300 words later and I’v not even done an update yet.
Updates coming soon, don’t know how often I will write to start with. We’ll just take this one day at a time.
Stay positive and be Awesome.
