Brave New World

20 May 2014

The Bottom of my Bread Bowl


I've been on a little hiatus the last few weeks. I finished my Externship at a cafe in Shreveport, returned to school for some finishing up and then crashed. This should not have come as a surprise to me since I've been running on all cylinders for quite a while now. So, since graduation on the 16th I've basically slept and walked a puppy...

This is me easing back in to the blogosphere.


One of the things I've been thinking about is bravery and courage. Pretty much everything that's going on with my right now requires some level of bravery. The funny thing is that I thought, that because I was/am experiencing fear and or nerves associated with these choices or decisions that I'm not brave. It was pointed out to me that bravery is feeling all this and doing it all anyway (Feel the fear and Do it Any Way). I've sort of gotten used to certain kinds of fear...like quitting my job, going back to college, etc etc. It all sort of became a do or die kind of situation.

Now all of those choices are rolling over into starting a new job/career (more on that later) and trying to establish a social life (after pushing that to the back burner for a long time). Putting myself out there and seeing what happens always pushes me a little outside of my comfort zone. I suppose that is the next fear to tackle.

One thing I am trying to hold true to is that I am determined to enjoy my life...which is why all these decisions induce some fear. I am always a little worried about making a choice that will cause me to be unhappy. However, I have begun to realize that there are no right or wrong choices because they all have led me to where I am now.
