My Commitment

I’m committing to me.  I’m committing to what I need.  I’m committing to what will make me happy.

And if you have a problem with it, you can just deal.

I’m not a selfish person.  I often find myself too often putting others needs in front of my own.  Sometimes to the point where I neglect my own needs.  So I’m recommitting to myself and recommitting to listening to what my mind and body are asking for.  Because at the end of all of this, I want to be happy with my life.

I’m starting by trying to figure out what it is I want right now.  It has felt like things are missing or something just isn’t right, so I want to figure out what that is and how to fix it.  And I know it starts by focusing on me.  And quite honestly, by focusing on my writing.

In case you missed it, I just want to write.

So putting myself out there for more writing opportunities seems like a start.  Figuring out how to get more experience writing seems like a start.  And pulling together some of my best writing samples seems like a start.  So I started.

I’m not exactly sure what the next steps are but at least I can say that I’ve started and I’m working to figure out what’s next.  That’s more than I could have said yesterday…
