i'm not sure yet where i'm going with this...
i guess i needed a new place to start. a place to create and gather my thoughts. a place to be real and raw.
so many times i wanted to make a new blog. i had one a few years ago that was very private but very dark. i was deep (again) in my eating disorder and hatred toward myself. these days i'm dealing with some other stuff, which i will eventually get into, i'm sure.
what inspired me to create this one was, well, a few things. the first was listening to a recent podcast by Gala Darling where she talked about livejournal and how she missed the days when everyone had their own blog or website or some corner of the internet that wasn't facebook. and the second was reading a book by SARK called "Thirsty Pens, Juicy Paper," and being head-over-heals inspired to write again.
having this re-discovered urge inside me to start over and write and write and love the process (we shall see how this goes, i'm a little nervous), i decided to go for it and create my own space, over here in this little corner, where pearls & meadows will reside.
a few things you should know about me before you continue reading my blog: 1. i rarely use proper grammar. i know *how* to type properly. i can write proper sentences and such. i just don't feel like it. i'm lazy. especially if i'm on my phone. so i just got used to typing like this. not sorry if this bothers anyone. you may also find other typos here and there. again, i'm lazy, and probably won't be using too much editing. this isn't exactly a professional blog! 2. this may get dark. and that's it. this may get dark.
enjoy ;)
