Who am I?
When I decided to begin a blogging journey I was triggered by the same persistent thought over the course of about a year. Who am I and what do I possibly have to offer people? Then a big one, what will people think of me? This trio strategically and conveniently sat with me during each writing and self-reflection session. They showed up often before the session, prepared with judgment and sentencing in hand. As I sat and wrote, allowing each page to absorb complete truth and transparency, who I am rose above the condemnatory whispers of self-doubt. It was in those moments of raw expression that the essence of who I truly am emerged, resilient and unapologetically genuine.
When the question of who I am and what I have to offer people arises, I stand firm in my simple response.
No one, I am no one.
This acknowledgment is not a dismissal of personal worth, but rather an acceptance of the humility that comes with recognizing our place in the grand scheme of human experience.
What do I have to offer? The gift of experience. Clarity, and unique perspective.
With the sole purpose in joining the stance to rewrite the narrative on mental health, self-acceptance, and the gift of living.
In a world often engulfed with stigmas and misconceptions, I’ve found my place in the tribe that contributes to the collective efforts dispelling the shadows that shroud discussions about mental well-being, purpose, and self-doubt. Through blogging I hope to carry the weight of authenticity, and my mission is to illuminate the path towards a more compassionate understanding of the struggles we all face.
As I stand firm in my perspectives and share my experiences, I don’t do this from a pedestal of self-importance but from a place of humility.
Power and unity live under the umbrella of vulnerability.
Each facing our own narratives, unapologetically, honestly and finding ourselves anew each day.
Ultimately, my blogging journey is not a proclamation of personal grandiosity. My imperfections are the reason I am able to write to you, shaping me time and time again and placing me here. May you find these blogs quiet affirmations of the collective strength found in the honesty of our stories.
Through this I pray we all rise about and break the shackles of dysphoria. Through each letter I strive to remain steadfast in my commitment to amplify the voices that echo the sentiments of resilience, hope, and the beauty inherent in the human experience and gift of life.
