Diary of Life: So it begins
“Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”
―Dr. Seuss
It all begins with an idea, a feeling, a passion, an opportunity, maybe some hesitation and fear, but it all must start somewhere, and for me, that is here.
I am no professional, just another soul passing through, creating this necessary space for me and maybe if it resonates for you. I am a queer 27-year-old new age man who is still just figuring out what, when, how, why, and what to do. I am educated but only by the standards imposed on me (that and my fortunate, blessed opportunities); a baccalaureate of science (specifically molecular biology) and most recently an apparent master in the affairs of educational counseling…but if you ask me honestly and earnestly where my knowledge truly lies, I’d say it’s in my devotion to the beauty of my one life… a poet, an artist, a fool (I really am just another soul passing through.
I am trying to find my authentic voice, and this year has pushed and pulled me ever closer to that personal truth. I’m trying to sound and sing like me and not you, because there are over 8.025 billion yous, but my story is all mine, so I will author it as I can only choose. As a reminder to myself as I embark on this new journey, if when reading these words back and I don’t hear my own voice in my head, that’s a good sign I still have more work to do along this shared journey before the final end.
Clear, confident, and I won’t allow my overthinking to confess or confuse the beauty of my story as the path before me evolves, sways, and moves…making each moment feel right for right now as life only could. Later will take care of itself. It always does (if that’s what you choose).
xoxo love always Bbb
