The First Post

I suppose i'll just get right to the point.
What's the purpose of this blog? I'm just one of billions of people crowding the world...

It's not that i'm trying to be famous, popular, or the show-offy kind. And it's not as if I have impressive writing skills or an amazing life with numerous stories to tell.
I simply have an honest voice and a knack for sharing some personal discoveries i've found.

I started this blog for several reasons:
1. To share my findings, experiences, or just some pretty great stuff with the world. <3
2. To write anonymous letters to my best friends, parents, boyfriend, not-so-close friends, loved ones, random strangers...
3. For finding out why blogging [and talking about yourself] is so addicting. No honestly, why are humans so egoistic sometimes?
4. To improve my writing skills? To find meaning embedded within me?
Hahaha! Maybe, sure. I can try, right?
5. To be proud of something that's my own on the world wide web. Just a Facebook profile no more!
6. And why not - for entertainment purposes too. (:


Either way, I hope this is the beginning of something great.

“Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find 'tomorrow' on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, 'If I had my life to live over again...' Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.” - Og Mandino.
