It is New Year's Eve 2015 and this is my first post on my first blog. I feel like I should start this blog with, what my yoga teacher urges at the beginning of each class, an intention. For the past couple of years, I have struggled with the feeling of being "stuck" in life. I constantly crave something more, not know what that something is or even where to begin looking for it. What's worse is that I am usually looking to others around me to tell me what I should do. This is going to be more of a journal type blog. A place where I can tell my daily stories and let go of what's on my mind. It almost sounds like a childhood imaginary friend. It will probably become one of the most hodge podge-iest of blogs. I'm hoping that somewhere along the way, I might be able to discover my passion, purpose, and what drives me.
The reason I've titled the blog "A Kink & A Whim" is that most decisions I make from day to day are whimsical (like starting this blog). I bounce from interest to interest, always wanting to start a new hobby but never actually jumping in and giving it a real try. This is something that I want to change in the new year. At the end of 2014 I wrote down goals for 2015. Tonight, I looked back and saw that I met almost none of the 10 or so that I had scribbled down in a journal. My failure in meeting my goals, my hopes, my dreams, is that I hit a kink. The first kink in the line, the pressure builds and I make excuses and give up. I'm sure that I'll still be hitting lots and lots of kinks in the future but hopefully I can get my butt in gear and learn to cope with the kinks and push through.
There are big changes to come in 2016. Happy New Year y'all!
