I will be here

I have decided to create this blog in order to put thoughts into words for me and others to reflect upon in times where insight and understanding is needed.

I never like blogs when people do not know anything personal about the writer behind the words you are reading.

I am seventeen years old living in New Zealand, and although I have no degrees in psychology or counseling yet- I feel as though the lessons I have learnt from many experiences has proved that I can write a successful self-help blog. I am currently in my first year of Uni studying communications, which will hopefully get me into a Bachelor in Human sciences where my knowledge of they way in which humans word will grow. I indulge in writing, I am a creative writer and poet however only recently did I gather enough motivation to do something with it. I have had my share of hardship just as much as the next person- I lost my father to a brain tumor at fifteen years old, I have endured abusive relationships, and I have battled with myself in the tiring fight of anxiety. All in all these situations have shaped what I am blessed with today such as wisdom, new views on life, appreciation and the most amazing boyfriend I could have ever wished for.

My experiences have taught me lessons. Therefore creating the title of this blog.

I hope to share with people future struggles I may face and the lessons they present, but the main reason I am writing this is to allow the words bottled in my head to be read by people out there who want to learn they are not alone, and to truly understand that life is a pathway of eternal lessons that let us grow for the good.

I can see myself spending many nights writing in here, it will become my public diary of my insecurities, thoughts, dreams, lessons, losses and gains. I will be shedding it all and exposing it to anyone who is willing to read.

I look forward to the people I help and the progress I make in this world of lessons.
