Be Brave

Since November is coming to an end, and the New Year just around the corner, I've decided I'm going to use the next month to dig up old projects and try to complete old goals and challenges. I try to be as honest as I possibly can with people in real life communication, and I'm going to try to do so here. On the online world. Where people judge you behind screens and stab words at you with their laptops. No pressure, right?

Jokes aside, I honestly believe that it's time to dig out the old New Year's resolution from the beginning of this hectic year and finally bring them to a resolution. People often don't realize that they have the strength to complete their out of this world goals and it takes nothing more than this: self discipline.

In fact, in class today, my math teacher-a wise old man who, in his eyes, hasn't even hit his mid-life crisis at the marvelous 61 years old-said to us, between ridiculous algebraic equations, that smart people are not the ones with the most intelligent; they are the ones who know their skills, their strengths, their weaknesses, and know just exactly what they're good at. And you know, as I sat there and watched him chuckling over his own wisdom, I placed my hand in my chin and just thought: what am I doing, everyday, that I know I've succeeded at? Just what exactly?

And so I brainstormed, and decided: I don't want to live another day of my life not doing something I know I'm proud of.

So. Here it is, hopefully this'll be the product of my pride and I ask you, whoever you are to take my hand and join me on this interesting journey.

For the next month, I will be adding new editions to the site and thinking up creative new things to spice up this place and make it a place I hope one of you will see it as, the way I want to see it as: home.

Be brave.

Be strong.

And Be Shameless.

P.S. Check out www.shamelessmaya.com to see one of my favorite YouTubers of 2012. She's inspired me to start this blog and I think her first video will certainly inspire you guys the way it did for me.

Stay Poetic,
