There are times in a writers’ life that a blinking cursor on a blank page simply means that she has not put enough thought into what she wants to write about. But there are also times when she knows exactly what she wants to write about but does not know how to say it. Yes, it happens. It’s not writers block … it’s writers shock.
When something so big happens that it changes the tone of a blog, it changes how you see the world, and it is near impossible to put it into words. But I suppose that is my job here, to put into words what many people cannot. And that is what I must attempt.
So much of my blog has been contributed to thoughts about society in general — about how malicious and wrong it can be to be a part of the “rat race” — and how important it is to follow your heart and dreams in life, no matter how difficult it may be. I have often gone off on tangents about life purpose, not being able to find one, and finding the “perfect” career. So much of this seems so lame to me right now.
You see, I peed on a pregnancy test stick about three weeks ago, and it came out positive. It has changed my view on the world in such a short time. Try one day. I see things in a different light, and I am pretty sure that no matter what happens with this pregnancy, I will never quite see the world the same way again. And I will be sharing this crazy journey with you along the way. The most unexpected and scary thing that could’ve happened to someone like me has happened, and I want nothing more than to tell it like it is in all its gruesome glory.
So, if you have questions you always wanted to ask about being pregnant … how it feels, what the symptoms are … no matter how gross or ridiculous, post a comment, and we’ll explore it in future posts! Thanks for reading, and I look forward to taking this journey with you.
And … in case you were wondering … I am 9 Weeks and 4 Days along. Weird …
