As an inexperienced writer, I'm almost finding trouble in how to start this. I just keep trying to find something captivating or witty; something to catch your eye and draw you in. So it makes me think, why do I want to do this? I have found myself becoming hungry for purpose and a want for change. I want that change to blossom within myself and within other people. I want to feed the little flower inside my heart that is frantically searching for light, nourishment, and courage. Putting my own self-healing aside, I want to be all those things for other people. I'm ready to make a difference.

There are so many different topics at opposite ends of the spectrum that I'm passionate about. The one thing they all have in common, though, is the goal to have made a difference in someone's world. All it takes is one person. Even if it takes me a while to reach that goal, I know this will be an experience in itself for me. It'll be a journey of becoming more self-aware, being raw and unfiltered (within reason, of course) with deep emotions and thoughts. Even though there is the inevitability of negative feedback, that's where the courage sweeps in and the learning process begins.

I am scared, excited and everything in between to have the opportunity to be heard. I'm a firm believer that you are never alone, no matter the circumstance. People can relate to each other so easily with open minds and simply educating themselves. With open mindedness and the want to be educated becoming narrower and narrower, I think it's important to stand up for the one's who aren't ready. I think I'm ready for the negative feedback, should it come my way. I think I'm prepared to step back and look at what's being said from that point of view, and figure out how to positively move forward. I'm ready and in the mind set that I can only be built up from here.

As I welcome you into my world, I encourage anyone reading my posts to welcome me into theirs. I'd love to know what goes through your heads and how and why your opinions form. What's important to you? Whether that be reaching hundreds and thousands of miles away, or maybe just my neighbor right next door. I only hope that I can become anything and everything I aim to be, and that of what others hope for me, too. I promise to be honest, open, fearless, personal, supportive, and inspirational. I also promise to also handle every subject eloquently and respectfully. So, hello everyone! My name is Taylor and it's time to make a difference. Buckle your seat belts and let's do this thing!
