I think I've started like 4 blogs now since I got a blogger account back in 2008 but there's practically nothing on all of them. I think I've decided that the reason is because I'd name the blog after a specific way I was thinking or feeling at the time, and when I go back to it, I don't feel the same way about it. Or something like that.
Well, anyways, to be honest, I've always thought the purpose of blogs to be completely stupid. When I first learned about them, my thought process was: WHY would you want to write journal-type things and have people read them?? Only drama queens. And WHY would you want to read other people's journal-type things? Only stalkers would know.
Ok,I'm not that stereotypical, I've grown a respect for blogs and bloggers alike since then. I still would not consider myself a blogger, but I like the idea of having something I can vent on and it's not gonna show up on a news feed (like facebook or myspace notes...gosh, those myspace emo poems written by classmates back in high school annoyed me so bad...)
Anyways, I wanted to title the blog something that (hopefully) would never change about me. Past blogs have been titled "Future Imagineer" and things pertaining to working for Disney, etc. Don't get me wrong, I would love to work for Disney, but I've been trying to convince myself that I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna do that, I have higher priorities, and there are other careers I could have that would be fun and would be a lot more practical to study in school.
The title actually came from something that hit me last year. I have always been a pretty chill person. I very rarely freak out because of stress or a dramatic situation. I think that, for the most part, people who feel sorry for themselves and think that their life is so dramatic and everything bad happens to them and they cry all the time usually just stress out about every day stuff that doesnt need to be stressed out about.
Actually, thinking back now, I'm not sure why this hit me last year. Maybe I was having a bad day or something. Sometimes I keep things in too much and I overthink them which gets me a little depressed. That's probably what it was. Well, anyways, it was a Sunday and my super amazing and outrageously beautiful friend Victoria was giving a Sunday School lesson and it was on one of my absolute favorite scripture stories. It was when God talks to Moses in the burning bush and then Satan after and Moses totally rips him apart by saying, "Who are YOU? I am a son of GOD."
Victoria challenged us to wake up every morning and before going out the door, to say out loud "I am a child of God, and I am STRONGER than Satan." Since then, that's kind of been my motto. I am a firm believer that it doesn't matter what is going on in your life. YOU choose what kind of day you're going to have. Personally, I enjoy good days. So I can have as many as I want. Because I want to.
So before I write any more posts on this blog, I'm gonna see the title and it's gonna remind me that I'm gonna have an AWESOME day today!!! I am a daughter of God and I am SO much stronger than Satan, and I'm gonna have a crazy good day today because I said so!
