Being the First: Blog Intro

Being the first of my new blog, I thought I should express the root of my new venture to jar my thoughts in the way of the 21st century.


Why Blog?

I teach. Kids. I am a bit of a klutz. This gives me a lot to process, internalize and verbalize; and sometimes I talk to a loved one about my human interest stories that come from the journey of my profession as well as the quirks of me in my everyday. Sometimes I talk to myself about them. Sometimes in the shower. Yea I am convinced this is not weird. Trying to get my family on board with me on that....the crazy ship haha.

I'm really blogging to get my thoughts out so I can learn to process the events of my life positively and progressively. To laugh at myself, cry, laugh at why I'm crying, and to have a place to remind me why I should dare cast all my cares on Him.

Why Morning Dew?

I tend to get stressed out and/or into some strange situations and as I talk it over with friends, I am learning to air it all out, laugh at the funny, complain about the dummy...
They care with me and laugh with me. The amazing thing about these beloved is that they do it at the most sincerest of moments.

I had always prided myself in being private, but of late I have found acute remedy in the sharing of my life. It's like being caught in rain. The kind of rain that gives you an entree of wet with a side of wind slap. But then you realize the beauty of it the morning after; when you are sheltered, the plants have grown and the sun is out:)


Joy comes in the morning and to me, sometimes the "morning" is a chat with a good friend, a prayer, a hug, a song, a book, chocolate, mum's cooking, cupcakes, MMA (whhaaaatt!!?), the beach, chic flick, or simply a good old laugh. I'm toying with the last. I did play with the thought of naming this Mourning Due but concluded that it was awfully pessimistic of me. My second choice was Memoirs of an Immigrant Samurai. You'll find out why in my future blogs.

How Blog?

Like my dad, I am a fan of short, concise paragraphs. That's how.



Love,

Me~ WRT
