I just hope I'll be able to put my life in writing, photos, and videos. For that, I do need the appeal of a readership, unable to will and do them (the words, the photographs) just for myself. You're my motivation, readers, whether I know you or not.
My secondary motivation is the possibility to some day print out the blog, in a year's time maybe? and see what's been experienced, attempted and hopefully accomplished.
Blogs have been an inspiration, but also big time wasters. I figure, if I'm the one writing, I'll inspire myself and nourish myself instead of this state of life-anorexia, where I look at others' adventures without going on my own as often as I could.
And adventures I know. I faced some of the fears and highs of the first world adventurers. Indeed my dear, you guessed well :
- I lived abroad, without a plan!
- I left my university without getting a job and had to rely on the kindness of strangers (well, I knew him and we lived together, sooooo, he wasn't that much of a stranger after all).
- I then ended a relationship in my mid twenties although the hormones started kicking in and that I wanted to have a baby and a house and a marriage.
- Instead I ditched all that and went back to live to my parents.
- I pursued education while working.
- I finally reached the Holy Grail of a stable job (almost a dream job) when I got my teachers' qualification (if you know what it entails in France you look at me in awe).
- And now, now, there's the existential crisis pre-30th, well, 29th birthday (the worst innit?!). So my all body is under scrutiny, my relationship too, my spirituality is trying to take over my cartesian mind.
- Moreover : I'm discovering I'm not that special, without any great skills mastered. Not even eating food with my feet. Which was on my "25 before 25" list, and has never been crossed. I don't even know how to use the fancy coffee maker in the kitchen !
So you see, it was time to take action. Starting a blog is one. Let's see the others.
