In
our world nowadays it seems, that whatever you are looking for,
whatever your question is, there is one endless place what can give
you all the answers. This is the internet.
I
do remember of times without computers (yes, age issues), and it was
fun! But if I look at it today... WOW, it's completely different! For
example, just imagine, you like candy, and there is a new store
opening in the city. You go in, and after a few steps, you are in
shock! Wherever you look are sweets, bonbons, chocolate... you name
it. To go trough all the variety would be overwhelming, so let's
narrow it down a bit.
I
am a self confessed nail polish addict. I wake up thinking about
them, I talk about them all the time, I collect them and they are
pretty much a big part of my life. I love everything about them, the
smell, the bottles, the designs, the glam, all the methods which give
you unique finishes and the colours (OMG, the colours!!!) I thought
there is no way, that there are other crazy people like me out there.
Well, this changed completely, when I started to look for some nail
art designs on the internet...
Holy
polish! I've been sucked in to this bottomless swirl of pictures,
videos, swatches and blogs. It feels like a constant euphoria, which
not just ever stops, but adds onto it every single day... If there is
an addiction I never want to quit, than this is it!
After
a while in this beautiful and colourful chaos of gazillions of
informations, I saw a pattern rising up. I did find my favorite
swatcher, I follow the person, who makes the best pictures and macros
of all kind of nail polish, and of course, I did find my favorite
bloggers. I would like to mention it here, that I impatiently waiting
for the newest posts, clips, or pictures. If you feel at this point,
that this might describe how you feel, don't panic! That's normal! It
just shows, that you are officially addicted to something amazing!
I
have to admit, I was reading endless pages of descriptions, opinions,
watched hours of swatches and hauls. I never got bored of it... And
then, one day this weird thought root in my mind, and it is still
growing.
"Shall
I be a blogger?" Well,
if you ask yourself once, you are lost... It might be, "Yes,
let's do this!", and there you start. Or, you can find yourself
in this wide ocean of hesitation (as I did). As you paddle, all the
questions of hesitation bombard your boat like waves:
"I
don't know how to start...!", "Why shall I do it, there are
so many of them...", "Will someone read it at all?",
"What if people don't like my style?", "Can I show
them something new, something unique?", "What if I don't
have time to write, will I have negative comments?" And this is
going on and on and on... Arrrgggggg.....
My
answer is: YES! What
can you loose? But this is not really the question. What can you
gain? You might find a side of yourself what you never knew about!
Yes,
you may have another moment of "Am I sure about this?" but
just do it! The beautiful thing in human nature is, that we are all
individuals, with one common thing: curiosity. That little feeling
drives us forward, gives us motivation and strength. With that,
people will find your words! They might find it "Mahh...",
but they also might find it very useful, interesting and enjoyable!
Don't
forget: we are all different! And different people will look for
different styles, different descriptions and different designs. There
will be always space for another opinion! For your own and unique
opinion! Nearly forgot to mention all the wonderful people who you
can meet during your journey!
Before
you run off to look for possibilities of how to create a blog, just
remind yourself, that if you don't share your thoughts with other
people, they might not find the hidden gem inside you! The more you
share, the more will other people and You discover!
The
outcome might be the most wonderful feeling you ever experienced!
Aww what a lovely post. I didn't realise how new you were to the blogging scene. Well done for taking the plunge and starting one.
