During my time off from school I have periodically been sending out email updates about my life, my experiences, my continued growth and enlightenment. I have excerpted some of them and posted them up here.
I've decided to stop my email updates and I'm currently debating whether or not I should instead post these would-be email updates to my blog or just keep them in a journal. They can get pretty personal is the thing. And as my dad will always remind me, this is a public blog, not a private journal. But it is so self-fulfilling (?) to think that I can have an audience (and a worldwide one at that!) to my rantings and ramblings. It makes me feel... seen, worthy, purposeful, appreciated, understood to know that someone, maybe, someday is reading my story and that it just might resonate with them, too.

I am a parent who have been following your posts since your time in Ethiopia. I think you have a way of saying things that resonates with young people your age as well as old folks like me. I hope you will continue to share your thoughts in this blog. However, as a parent, I appreciate where your dad is coming from and agree that there are some things that just belong in your journal. I am sure you know them when you see them!
