Love 2.1 (Sneak Peek)

Hey readers!! I'm currently in the process of writing two blogs at the moment. One that is long overdue and another to commemorate my 21st birthday that kind of fell out of the sky and into my lap. It's amazing when inspiration will strike! I've been so busy with work and trying to live a life outside of work that I have neglected everything literary. My deepest apologies and to make it up to you I have a sneak peek of my birthday post called "Love 2.1". I gave it that name for a couple of reasons. I went through some key moments in that past year and I give my thoughts about life and what I've learned that are responsible for making me the person I am at the moment. It's been a beautifully painful journey, but one that I don't regret in any way. The title itself is based on how love has changed me in so many ways. I have reached this whole new level that I can't wait to explore and grow in. So here it is, a sneak peek of "Love 2.1":


"Here I sit in a room where I did a lot of growing up in the past year. I look around at these four walls that created an environment entirely made of love and freedom. I look at the pictures on my dresser slightly covered in dust because of my lack of tidying up skills. I’m in almost all of them and I used to think that was because I am very vain, but looking at them now I see my face in a different background each telling a different story, but with the same smile that just says, “Hey look, Ben! You were here!” I like to look at this like an emotional growth chart. It’s me in all these pictures, but I was at a different emotional state in all of them. It starts out awkward and afraid to rebellious and troubled to hitting rock bottom before settling to working my way up. I can honestly say that I have felt more alive in the past year than I ever have in my entire life. A lot of it had to do with making some drastic decisions, taking some risky chances and ultimately stop trying to force everything and just let them happen in their own time. . ." 


I look forward to posting it very soon along with "Welcome". Stay tuned! 


Xoxo.
