So, here I am. Trying again. Focusing a lot less on being perfect and a lot more on creating purpose. Yes, the fact that I’m typing this conversation-style post full of grammatical errors is causing the pastime English major in me to cringe, but it’s fine (for now). Someone once told me that a “finished something” is sometimes better than a “perfect nothing”.

I write in order to connect, in order to share, in order to tell stories. I write because I think it is something worth reading, because I need to. I write because, deep down, I want to be listened to.

Listening to their stories inspired me to work even harder at accomplishing my goals. I felt in awe once again of the human spirit and its capacity for compassion and perseverance as we make it through this world together. We are not as apart as we seem, and our interdependence does not make us weak. Rather, I feel it’s an innate human characteristic that shows what amazing things we can accomplish through collective action.
