Prompt: A letter to your readers
Dearest reader,
I just want to take the time to thank you for stopping by to see what I am up to and how I am facing freedom. But most importantly, I want to thank you for allowing me to be me. I have to admit that I am still trying to define what that means, but I will get there.
One of the hardest things for me to do is to open up to people. And with this blog, I want to share everything with you because I know I am not the only woman who is feeling stuck in her career. Stuck in the routine of life and stuck feeling like she doesn’t know who she is because she has become so engrossed in the life of her significant other. I feel you.
I still hold back because let’s face it; there is such a thing as sharing too much. But I believe the first step to creating myself (not finding) is being honest about who I am, which is not always pretty and I am okay with that now.
I am embarking on this journey because I refuse to give into that “everybody is miserable” theory. I will not continue to be stuck because I am too afraid that I will fail trying something else. And I also refuse to develop that bitter-city-woman syndrome because I choose not to change.
That won’t be me and it shouldn’t be you because the sky is the limit and we can be the stars that line it, if we choose to be.
Once again, thank you so much for everything. I look forward to sharing more of myself with you and I am also thrilled about learning about you so please don’t be shy.
Truly yours,
Yasmein, She’s Facing Freedom
