Inspiration...

I know that I've been on a hiatus from writing on my online journal and I didn't realize how much people enjoyed my thoughts and creativity until I was encouraged by numerous people to get back to it. One friend left a single sentence on my facebook wall, "Journal it... that is all." I've stepped away from my writing, at least on here, because as life often does, it consumed me with road blocks and the monotony of everyday routines. I've been swallowed in this fast pace New York City life.

Recently, I've been inspired by my thoughts and feelings both anger and happiness. I find that writing about my anger and things I question is extremely therapeutic for me. The reason for this entry is to let my readers know that I haven't forgotten about them and also to remind myself that my juices are still flowing even if I did stumble upon writers block or and a lack of inspiration. In the entries to come I'll have stories about love and life and what to do when you don't have all the answers, what to do when it seems as if everyone else around you does and how to find your way through this happy, joyful, exciting, breathtaking, painful, gut wrenching, sad, angry and sometimes ambiguous journey called life and love. It's almost as if a spark has been lit inside of me and I have so much to get out. So please stay tuned as I share the stories of those around me and even some of my own. I want to be a voice for people who don't have the courage to talk about their pain and to let people, woman especially, know that they aren't alone in this. "My pain your entertainment." -JayZ
