I think it is safe to say that I am not afraid of many things in this life. Aside from the quintessential human fears of death and failure, I consider myself a fairly audacious young women who is bold in her undertakings. I have been wanting to start a blog for some time now. I am a person with much to say, and what better place to channel this energy than a modern day forum with access for all to see. For some reason, however, I am scared to start this project. I know for starters that this fear stems from my remarkable inability to navigate through all things computer-related and Internet based. I have to admit, while being astute with marker and paper, I am not at all technology savvy (case in point: it took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to start this first post). It is a frustrating notion for me. I have so many different aesthetic ideas and visionary dreams for this blog, but I can barely figure out how to change the font, let alone construct an elaborate backdrop for the site.
Aside from my lack of knowledge regarding the inner-workings of blogs, I believe my true fear in undertaking this project is rooted in the simple fact that I might not be good enough. Good enough for what or for who, I do not know, but I just have an uncertainty about whether or not I can pull this whole thing off. Now, those of you who know me are probably gasping at this insecurity, as I am, for the most part, confident in all my endeavors. But the truth of the matter is I am terrified of how this all is going to turn out. I know it sounds dramatic, but I am a pretty dramatic person so I guess that is fitting. In any case, I am pushing my irrational fears aside and going for it. Welcome to my blog!
