Okay. So it's been like a sabbatical. Since my last post i have been MIA and not even apologizing. Just fell off the planet. I'd like to say life got in the way and be all cliche and stuff, but that would just be insulting. After all, isn't the whole point of this blog to chronicle what I've been doing to better myself?
So what I have been doing? Unloading, and i mean that in every possible way of the word. Both emotionally, physically, literally and metaphorically. I mean rock bottom was not the flu, it was an indicator of what was to come.
Now at the ripe old age of my mid twenties I've realized that the coping mechanisms of yesteryear no longer hold up. It's funny, because an acting friend of mine who's directing a scene I'm in saw that aspect of my personality the moment I walked on the stage. He sensed restraint. And he told me I had to allow myself to be more open. I had to be more free. I had to wipe the slate clean of how people perceive me and start anew, this time with my thoughts and interests in the foreground. And that is some scary business. I mean how to you do a complete 180?
So it's time to hit the ground running. And that means an overhaul on the way I set things up on this blog and how it will be from this point on. Previously I declared this a gradual change, focusing on little things here and there till the big picture was formulated. No can do former blogger! Change like this is a band aid of truth, it'll suck initially, but it reveals something brand spanking new and dare I say better? After all, did our beloved clay baby Princess need time to "gestate" before she became a human lady child?! Nay! Lightning struck, a little greek song and dance and POOF, she's an infant. So no baby steps. I'm doing it, and I'm picking up other nuances along the way. If I have the time and let's be real, mula to hit these other self improving landmarks, then I'll do it.
I will focus on being the person I see myself to be. Yes wonder woman, aren't you clever, but more than that. At the heart of the Amazon Princess is a self trusting, confident and strong woman. And that's what I need to be.
Time to get awesome. It's super freaky, but I couldn't be more pumped. Hot pants win.
