What Am I Doing?!

All my doubts and all my fears just boil down to that one question. That and "Why Am I Doing It?"


I usually don't have to be doing something crazy. At least, it wouldn't appear crazy to another person. Preparing for a career? Looking for a job? Going on a date? 
These things are normal. But for me, most things have me second guessing myself.
What if my best doesn't cut it? What do I have to offer? What if I am not enough?
And then, it's all downhill and I undermine myself before the race has even started.


This is how the blog started.


Out of the blue, my phone rang (trust me, that is a rare phenomenon). My friend M was on the phone and she sounded really excited. 

I have an idea, you should start a blog.

I thought she went crazy. She then proceeded to explain as to why I should. I'm sorry to say that I don't remember that part of the story because I was ready to forget after the call ended. Why should I? What would I talk about? Aren't there other people who are better to do that? Then she said something that stuck with me.

No one is you. No one can tell a story like you because they don't have your experiences, your perspectives, your anything. Your story matters.

And that's where the title came from too.

I matter and my story does too. It may not matter to a lot of people but that doesn't mean that I don't matter.  It's common sense but sometimes I lack that.


Well, let me now introduce myself. I'm a 20 something recent graduate. I love writing and hope to become an author. I love to read. I'm terribly shy but my friends don't think that at all. I'm also a believer learning how to walk with Him on a daily basis.

Basically, I am a girl trying to figure out what she is doing and sharing it with those who care to read.

I'm glad you are here and I hope that you learn something and have fun too.

Thanks,

R
