Megan Marie

Clearly, my name is Megan and it should at this point be pretty obvy that I'm a writer.

I've never really gotten into blogging. I'd always post once a week and then eventually get bored with it and forget about it unless I needed to bitch/vent about something. Much the same with most things that I'm 'passionate about'. The only thing that has always, and will always, be a passion of mine is writing. It's the one thing I don't do for anyone but me, and words have always fascinated me.

Anyway, I've decided to get back into blogging because after having a really, really awful couple of years, I'm finally getting my head above water and those first few breaths of fresh air were so invigorating, that they've sparked a new drive in me. This is my year. The year of Megan.

I'm not living to please, I'm not trying to be who everything thinks I ought to be...I'm just being me. I set out with a list of things I wanted to achieve before I died, and this was on that list...well sort of.

Among other things, I really want to reach people. I want to share my experiences and connect with other people in a way I'm never really sure I do in person. I want my experiences to maybe spark something in you too, or maybe just to give you a laugh, or something to make fun of (though obviously I hope you don't...haha)

I want people to see that even from the lowest depths of your life, you can eventually crawl up and out, it's a matter of will power and drive, something I'd never really thought I'd possessed until recently.

I was reading a reddit post about past lives and someone had commented talking about how we're reborn again each life to learn a new lesson, and I have the strangest/strongest feeling that my lesson is courage and bravery. And I'm learning more and more that I'm much braver than I ever thought, but I have a long way to go...I still haven't quite let go of my control.

So this blog is to chronical that struggle. Maybe it will be my own personal motivator to hold true to me word. I'm not sure. At the start of this I thouht it was just going to be random thoughts, but now it's evolving. Some people set themselves with a strict format i.e. poetry, or working out, or food, etc. But I want mine to be an ever changing ever growing..work of sorts.

So welcome to my page. I hope you can take something away from this, even if it's only a smile.
