Well. Here I am. Back in this virtual vortex of information and ideas aka the Internet, bursting with my own thoughts, ready to share with the world. So I took some time off from my newly created blog last year, a lot of time (time flies) actually, to complete some other ventures and to reevaluate the purpose of my blog. I must admit that over this past year, I’ve sucked in social media networks. Mainly Facebook, because reading the posts of others was not only entertaining beyond belief, but it made me realize how many emotionally broken people are trying to make their way through this thing called life and could maybe benefit from an encouraging word or different perspective. So I felt that it was my duty to use one of my gifts, writing, to uplift and encourage others. With that being said, I am not expecting everyone to agree with everything I post. What I expect is a thorough reading of my comments, blogs, poems, quotes, etc. and my reader’s honest feedback. Agreeing with me or not. I can respect differences of opinions as long we keep this a respectful platform. I also realized that I needed my blog as much as I may feel people need to read it. Writing has always been a huge part of my private life that I’m ready to take public, and what better way to start that process than your very own blog. So I am committed to bringing my followers fresh, hopefully thought-provoking content that will carry over into their lives to help them become the best them possible, or at least a more conscious them.

So who the hell am I? I’m sure you’re probably wondering. I know I would be. Well I tell everyone, I’m no one really. Just  girl with an opinion. That I’ve thought about before I’ve expressed. Which you don’t tend to get a lot of these days. But besides being an opinionated, Miami-born, life-bred woman, I guess I have to list my professional credentials, which may or most likely may not pertain to my postings. I am a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist by training and I’ve practiced in the field for over 11 years. Shortly after graduating with my masters degree from the University of Florida with a 4.0 GPA in 2005, I opened my owned therapy company in 2007, which currently operates with myself and several other therapists. In addition, I’ve also started two other companies, one with a focus on women’s fashion, and the other, real estate. Believe me, this is NOT an attempt to toot my own horn, as I am still striving to get where I want to be, but I do believe in checking resumes, so for those of the same accord, there’s mine in a nutshell. Actual copies upon request. But more importantly than the paperwork I hold, I consider myself an observer, one of my favorite titles. An observer of people, of situations, of life. I observe and analyze so much it gives me a headache sometimes. But I believe this deep analysis often brings a different perspective.

So hopefully, when you read my blog, you’ll leave saying, ‘hmm, I never thought about it like that before,’ or ‘I never thought about that at all!’ And if you read something worth sharing, I encourage you to do so. Spread the message! Get the word out! Thewritegirl305 has something to say!
