Sometimes You Have to do What is Best for You

I would have though the above message would be obvious, but only recently have I found it useful. I started this blog in the late spring, but was advised that blogging is "dangerous" for a young writer hoping to pursue a career in journalism...not that blogging is bad, but that what you say can come back to haunt you.

I don't know why this halted me, for when I am a journalist my words will be out there still. But it did. Now, after a tumultuous semester where I experienced so much, I am taking this moderately selfish route and doing what is best for me by continuing this blog. I am reminded about the first post I wrote, and I am encouraged by it. WRITING IS MY PASSION. And I need to do more of it. I am a busy student, but I should never be too busy to post up a few words, thoughts, etc. Writing is what I do. And it is what I will continue to do. And it is why my goal is to keep up regularly (4-5 times a week) with this blog. Cheers.
