Wow, my very first blog post. This is completely unreal. I’ve ALWAYS wanted to start a blog, but am just now mustering up the courage to do it. I’m in my bold girl era, I guess you could say. Words can’t even express how happy I am to be doing this. I wanted to properly introduce myself and inform you on what type of content will be provided from this blog. So without further-a-due, let’s get started!
What’s my story:
Okay, so I’m going to give a shortened version of who I am in a nutshell, or else we’d be here all day haha. I’m Ebony Wilson, and I’m a black 24 year old woman. I grew up in Indianapolis Indiana, and in a Christ- Loving family. I’m currently an undergrad college student (which I’ll get into on a different blog post, because it’s a whole thing), I’m very involved with my church, and I’m co-founder & content creator for my family’s small business. I also have a few small businesses independently. I’m constantly trying to develop new ideas and am totally driven by creativity. I’m neurodivergent with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). I’m still learning about myself when it comes to my potential and tactics to make difficult life things easier. And, I think that about sums me up. Okay! Now that you’ve gotten to know me a little, let’s get into the good stuff.
Why Start a Blog:
There are so many other forms of content creating that I could’ve chosen to pursue. This form however, is one that I connect with the most. Although I create video content as well and absolutely love it, I’m also in my element when I’m writing. There’s just something about it. I learned about my love for writing at a super young age. My elementary school teacher literally had to write the end of my writing project for me, because school was out and it was time for all the kids to leave for the day. But I wanted to stay overtime. It was this very day that I realised how special writing was to me. This is my own personal reasoning as to why I know that blogging is a great fit.
As for the bigger picture, the aim of this blog is to create a community of people that can relate to the topics mentioned here, and are able to find a sense of belonging. A sense of confidence in who they are, due to knowing there’s a whole group of people out there just like them. And if nothing I say is relatable to you, I hope that it’s inspiring in some way. Or as least holds your interest. We’re gonna touch on things that society doesn’t usually talk about to the public. And the goal behind this is to provide a refreshing genuity that draws you and I to freely write what we feel and think.
This is going to be a platform of conversation. When you comment, I respond with my thoughts. When you email, I respond with my thoughts. Heck, even use the number on my contact page to text me if you want! I feel like sometimes as a culture that grew up on social media, we can forget that other human beings don’t always need to be untouchable. And if you really think about it, being untouchable doesn’t sound very fun. Of course with keeping safety in mind, we were designed to make connections and find that common ground. And I aim to make this a platform for that exact purpose.
Final Thoughts:
I’m really looking forward to adding professional pictures and matching youtube videos to my future blog posts! But things like that will come in good time. Right now, I’m getting to know my readers and creating my own rhythm that comes with being a blogger. Anyways, I really hope you enjoyed this read, because I definitely enjoyed the write! Tell me about you now! What’s your name, where are you from, and what topic suggestions do you have? If you have no suggestions, I’d still love to learn your name! Until next time, blog buddies! 😀
