I realize that I may be a tad opinionated. I get that. Sometimes it's hard for me to decide what to say, because I know someone will be offended. So I don't say anything. I hold my tongue, and smile. I limit my friends to a few, literally. I only post fun and light things on facebook. Usually just pictures of my kiddo and me doing something crazy!
I love that part of my life, so SO much! But sometimes I feel like this big, huge part of me is silent. I feel like I'm censoring myself out of fear of offending someone. Which I seem to do every. single. time. I state my opinion. But if I don't start using this brain that God gave me for something more than holding my tongue, smiling, and nodding, I'm going to go crazy. Seriously. So I think I may take a few posts on here to rant occasionally. Since I'm about 99.78% certain I'm the only one who ever looks at this, but there's enough of a chance someone else does too, I think this is the perfect outlet for my occasional rants. I may post something about being single, kids, politics, current events, social media, victims rights, being an introvert in an extroverted church, or whatever else strikes my fancy! And those are just the rants I held in this week... I'm tired of holding my tongue just to avoid being thought a fool. If you don't say anything, you can never be a positive influence on someone either. I will try my best to look at all sides of a situation, as I always do. But occasionally I miss an angle. So please, feel free to chime in with your opinion in the comments and tell me why I'm wrong about something. Even just typing this out is making me feel like a weight has been lifted. I'm tired of being made to feel like I need to be a certain type of woman because that's Godly. I'll never be that type of woman. I have opinions, I am smart, I like being single, I'm probably a feminist, and I don't trust easily. That's who I am. So take or leave it, but get ready for some deeper posts! Because I'm tired of living a life of surface scratching.
