I started this blog as part of my new years resolution. I started it thinking no one would ever read it. I started it thinking I'll post this first time and then I'll never have to post again. I started it not thinking it would ever go anywhere.
78 posts later there is a whole new person sitting at this keyboard. I used to be closed off, afraid to let anyone in. When you let people in you leave yourself open to being hurt. That is something I have dealt with in the past and not something I want to go through again. But for some reason I feel like sharing everything.
I went back and reread my first post tonight. Wow it feels like it was forever ago. I find it funny that I posted the first time on Jan. 3rd and not again until Jan. 26th. Now it's rare that I go a day between posts if not 2, 3, or 4 times a day.
I have so much that I want to share. I have so many thoughts and emotions and feelings running through my head that I am constantly thinking about my next post. I never liked sitting in front of a camera and talking about myself and now I want to do it all the time.
I'm a new and better person for having started this blog. I'm more open, I'm more willing to follow my heart, I'm living again.
Some would say I'm hiding behind my computer by blogging and that I'm not really opening up but I think that this might be one of the scariest ways to open yourself up. This is not just telling one person your feelings or thoughts. It's telling anyone in the world who wants to read it.
I always wondered how much time was needed to change your life. I'm realizing that there is no set limit. In 2 months my life has changed and I know that in a couple months my life will change again.
We were talking about milestones last night in the SGP chat and the milestones that the company has had already. I think that is what started my thinking about this. The blog started around the same time I started mine (no coincidence there) and there have been so many milestones in my life during that time as well.
Life is an ever changing thing. You start on the roller coaster ride and who knows where you will end up. All you can do is sit back and enjoy the rides. The climbs are long and the falls are fast but in the end you will be able to look back on it with a smile on your face.

This is really bizarre. I touched on the same thing yesterday in my post.
You write really well. I liked your little 'conclusion'.
WoW!!! Thats all I can say right now!
I know exactly how you feel. Opening up your self to one person is hard, but to millions on the internet. Now thats a scary thing..lol.
Very well put girlie, and so so true. Very inspirational blog. Im glad to be apart of the new Kim, and I am honored that you share so much with everyone. :)

Great job Kim , your posts and vlogs are great
Keep it up
Yay for Kim being AWESOME!!
I started blogging a little later than you and its so funny... I thought the same thing "no one will ever read mine". I just wanted to start one just as a way to write out what I was feeling towards some projects that I was working on. Now, 2 months later, I have a whole new family.
I'm so glad that you decided to open yourself up to us, we love you and are here to support you in all the milestones ahead of you.
Happy friday!
