Questions

I was asked last night what my blog is really going to be about. When I started a mere two days ago, I honestly wasn't sure. And while allowing room for this to evolve into...well, whatever it may, I believe I have an answer to that question, at least for now.

For now I hope that this will be a place that I can push myself and whoever is reading to think- about big things, little things, and all things in between.

I haven't really lived yet.

Have you ever wondered what word (or few words) could sum up your life?

As my roommates and I began walking home from dinner last night, our conversation somehow drifted to the topic of memoirs. A mutual friend has the perfect beginning to his. I'd share it with you, but I'll wait to let you read it in a few years.

The first line my roommate suggested for mine? "I haven't really lived yet."

My dear, I beg to disagree. I'd like to think that I've lived well. I've just got a whole lot of living left to do.

Makes me wonder...what do I want to live for? What do you want to be said of your life?

Just Do It

A dear friend of mine desperately wants to show the important people in her life that she cares, but often doesn't end up doing anything for fear of it not being perfect. It has always sounded ridiculous to me. After all- something is better than nothing, right?

Yet here I am, writing my first post well over a year after I wanted to start blogging. I spent so long searching for the perfect first word and wondering what my niche is that I simply never started. Today, I start!

What is it that you've had on your to-do list for months? Head over to the Making Things Happen tumblr for the dose of motivation you need. This particular Karen Lamb quote struck a chord with me. What's moving you into motion today?
