Quiet

It's extremely quiet in this new space. I can hear the faint chirping of birds, the whistle of the wind, and I think the dust and cobwebs are starting to set in. At this particular moment, it is glorious!

I love that today, this blog has no followers, few posts, and is just a small beautiful space waiting to bloom. You see, I have no direction for this blog, no plans, no other-worldly goals. I have little to no ideals of growing this blog, writing multiple posts, participating in linky parties, or garnering sponsors. With my other blog, the pull to grow and fit in with the cool kids club was always in the back of my mind, even when outwardly I said it wasn't. So this space is like a breath of fresh air, that I will take in and cherish.

Hopefully, it will turn into a place of honesty and beauty. After stalking blogs for so long, I've realized that many blogs are chalk full of pretty idealistic portrayals of life but not necessarily always honesty. I want this space to be a true reflection of self...not always happy go lucky but real life...the good, the not so good, and sometimes the downright ugly. For me, it's the combination of these things that is a reflection of life. This is truth.


And beauty, I want to portray the things that are beautiful to me without limitations. Some days, that may be my children, some days mother earth, and others design and fashion. The point is, this blog is an open road that I plan to travel without any limitations. A blog full of randomness because, once again, life is random and so should my reflection of that life be.

In the meantime, I will sit back, drink a cup of sweet tea, and enjoy the quiet because the chirping birds, the whistle of the wind, the dust, and cobwebs really aren't so bad.
