My "Why?"
To the reader,
A while ago, I made the decision to delete all my social media accounts including my YouTube and blog. This, for me, was something rash, something drastic, and something that was absolutely inevitable for I knew that I needed some sense of a "fresh-start" in my life.
Now, I know it doesn't seem like much - to delete all my social media accounts - but to me, it was simply everything. I mean, I am growing up in a generation that is infatuated with their online presence, including myself, so much so that slowly becomes an obsession, burrowing itself deeper and deeper into our skin. We allow the person, on the screen, to dictate our present and future in hopes that we can replace our pasts, and I'm not saying everyone does this but I certainly did.
This is why I needed my fresh start. I can't deny the fact that my return to social media and YouTube is completely unavoidable, for I may decide to come back tomorrow, in a week, a month or a year. Regardless, I want to be sure that I am content with the person that I show online, and that she is completely representative of who I am in person.
So I decided to start small and restart the blog that I had lost, in hopes of making new memories, telling new stories.
With that being said: Welcome to my blog, and my baby-steps into the online world again!
This blog will be dedicated to my life lessons, fond memories, videos, and photography. As someone that wants to major in a field largely invested in their ability to think creatively, connect with people, and tell a story - I know that I will grow to become the person that I am meant to be over time.
Join me on my journey, to searching for an answer to all of life's unavoidable questions :)
Sincerely,
Bella
