My first blog post.
This feels a little strange now, because I am essentially writing for me, but hopefully there will soon be more of "you" reading this. There are a number of reasons I chose to start this blog. I will enumerate them ;)
- I live VERY far away from quite a few very important people in my life, and I miss them. Daily, I find that I am experiencing things that I wish I could share with you over a cup of coffee, but since that would include airfare, it's just not possible.
- For the last few years I have been going the Facebook route for keeping in touch, but I have found it to be a little too consuming, and in some cases almost more alienating than not having any contact at all. I will admit that I have reconnected with a lot of wonderful people over Facebook, but I am choosing to make my interaction more personal now.
- I like to write. And I am hoping that this will give me more motivation to make writing a regular part of my life.
It is my sincere wish that you will comment on these posts, or send me emails letting me know what is going on in your lives as well.
Here's to the next adventure!
Already loving it. Joëlle X
