Well its 2am and I'm up writing on my blog. I have a public blog where I post about my life, what's going on with me, what I'm thinking. My family, friends, and co-workers check that one. Many of them read it on a regular basis. So how can I post what I'm really thinking when I know that my Mom and Dad are reading what I'm writing. What if I want to post something about a date I had the other night? Something intimate possibly? You can't be comfortable saying things like that when the folks are reading. Know what I mean?
So how did I get here? Well its kind of a long story. To summarize - it started with a broken engagement, a near break down at work, two trips to try and find myself, a breast cancer diagnosis, and a new perspective on life. Viola! Doesn't sound like such a complex path, but it really was/is. But now that I'm on this path I can't help but wonder - what am I supposed to get out of this? I'm a believer that everything happens for a reason - well on the days that I'm not pissed off at the world. So I know that each 'trial' I've been through - there is a reason or purpose behind it. I'm trying to discover what that reason is and what my purpose is.
Reading all of this you are probably wondering why I decided to call my blog "I Fight Like a Girl". One of the things I've learned in the past few years is that when life hands you a bunch of shit you have two options, either you can roll over and take it OR you can get up and FIGHT LIKE A GIRL! I'm choosing to fight like a girl.
