When certain masses of the earth are moved, they are called Continental Shifts.
I can feel the continent below me and I'm ready for a shift.
You often "like" my posts on FaceBook, whether they are photos of beautiful scenery, caesars, food, exercising, me acting the fool, or photos of the people in my life. For this I thank you. From a place of vulnerability, I tell you that it makes me feel good when you do. I'm a bit needy at times, you see. But it's not lost on me, so please, by all means, keep doing it. It revives me, inspires me and many times one of you comments on a post, and it really means something to me, or touches me, makes me think or refocus. I wish that I knew every one of you, and I mean this quite literally; I actually can't remember who some of my friends on Facebook are anymore, and for that I am ashamed. I hope to change that. But I really wish I knew every one of you. Some of you I know very well; we are close, we've been through something intense together, and we understand each other. If you are one of these people, you really get me, and I believe you always will, so this post will make complete sense to you. You are a person that's already seen me be vulnerable. Maybe it was during my years of struggle from 25 to 29..ok ok, 21 to 30-something. Perhaps you’ve seen a bad side of me, a really good side of me, a unique side of me. Maybe it's because we've connected, dated, hated or just had a moment of oneness together. That group of people is usually forgiving with me, (for whatever reason,) and for that I am eternally grateful. You let me get away with crap, and I'm hoping it's because you've had faith there would be a positive outcome, that I'd reflect, that I'd grow, and just maybe your forgiveness could change the world. Even in my darkest moments, I've had faith I'd really be who i was meant to be "one day". As of now I still don't know exactly what that means, but I also still believe it and I'm living it. I'm hoping you do too. With that being said, my faithful readers, I'd like to get to know you more. I'm on a new journey and I'd like to share it, so I'm going to start blogging again. If you read this last sentence and liked it, please comment below with a blank comment to show you’ve done so. I’m aiming for ten blank comments, but would be happy with five. Think of it as your personal message to me. I won't tell anyone. And on the note of personal messages, I'd like to go back to my first point: I'd still love your engagement. I'm feeling like it's time to kick it into next gear and I'd love to share that with all of you. I'm going to link to a blog post I wrote almost 7 years ago now. It's a reminder of how I want to be and it's also a signpost that I'm going the right direction.
All I have to do is - Just Remember.
