I have sat down to write this post several times over the course of the last few weeks and, without fail, struggled to come up with the proper words to express in equal parts my excitement and fear over reaching this pivotal point in my life. Rather than trying to summarize it nicely, I am going to give you the Cliff Notes version right here in this introduction – I QUIT MY JOB TO PURSUE BLOGGING! Now that the elephant in the room has been addressed and I have shouted my excitement from the rooftop, I unfortunately need to put a damper on everyone’s enthusiasm, including my own, because this step did not come to fruition for quite the reason I hoped it would.
After the jump, I am delving deeper into the personal reasons I chose to make this leap of faith NOW. The reality of this situation is quite heavy and hard to share, but it is important to me that I do not sugarcoat this. While it would be wonderful if life could be neatly tied up with a picture-perfect bow, that simply is not reality and, more than anything, I want this platform to represent reality, both good and bad.
