You often hear "life is short" :I am here to drum in further. I am in such awe that I just graduated in 2014 and now I find myself undeniably in the coldness of January 2016. I often tell my sister that when I look at the mirror, I still see myself as a child, my big eyes and my chubby cheeks. Even now, I find it difficult to believe that I have responsibilities, such as paying rent and phone bills. There is possibly some excitement in working hard to gather money only to give it away in exchange of something else... I will not delve into politics today. My goal this year as a blogger is to put out as many stories, poems, essays, pictures and art work that reflects my interests and opinions as frequently as possible. I write often but spend so much time editing or making sure the piece is "ready" that it seems I only have moments with my muse. One can only become better as the years progress, or not, so I will be posting much more on this blog. I also want to start a project where I use artwork as inspiration to my pieces, a series of Ekphrases.
Some more exciting news...I'm trying to do a little bit more of spoken word which means finding interesting memorization techniques and also sharing my work.(I think I should post videos of my process.) I might start a youtube channel to post such videos or simply post them on this blog. I am so excited about the places my poetry will take me this year. I will be sure to keep everyone updated!
Finally, I hope everyone has a splendid beginning to the year. We have to keep positive minds and energies throughout the journey, until we make it to the end!
