OPEN HEART

This post is long overdue !!

To lighten up the mood i will post one of my favorite singles and you can have a listen before i rant and rave out here as was intended by the title Not Soo Silent.

I feel extremely passionate about this post because i intend on pouring my heart out, and letting go off of all the negativity and the b*llshit that has been handed to me by some of the people around me. I will try not to delve off the deep end but i will literally have a war within me.

As an ambivert (which is a trendy way to say a mix of an introvert and extrovert) , i have both characteristics and at times one seems to bypass the other, and this is in  respect to the situation that life decides to hand to me. The other day some ‘critic’ decided to tell me that he can’t teach me how to blog but he can teach me how not to blog!!! I honestly took offence to his comment and in my head what kept on hitting me was that blogging is an individualistic approach to expression. Expression is necessarily individualistic and at times we need to be able to do so without having someone to tell us that this is right and this is wrong. I just feel that way.

Anyway so i have decided that i will be strong in being alone and i quote Mandy Hale, “Learn to be alone and to like it. There is nothing more freeing and empowering than learning to like your own company.”  this is my new mantra in life and i will live by it. Despite nosey people asking me questions and stuff about, where my girl at? why am i still single? how comes i am single? blah blah blah… i will let things play out on their own and let the cards fall into place.

So that is it, I will try not to overthink things as i usually do and be able to be happy with the decisions i make without letting others put me down.
