Honestly Me
Let ‘s skip the bogus and talk real!
So, I am Carrie (aka Caroline).I am a Software Developer by profession. I worked for 3 yrs in this field and quit the job 3 months prior to the delivery of my baby girl! I am not planning go back to that industry at least until my girl is one and a half years old. So, there’s that..
Inhibitions?
Yep! I am paranoid! First possibility that crossed my mind was “what if no one reads it?”, ” what if someone be rude on my page and leave a nasty comment?” .. Then I thought to myself.. ” Well where on earth is that not going to happen? If I did this now, I can sleep peacefully thinking that I tried!” Cheers, to all those who think this is impossible… Because, you have reached the first step of thinking and eventually you will come around…
Do you know how unbelievably difficult it is to be myself, No Mask? People post instagram pictures with #nofilter tag. But have you experienced the magnitude of being yourself? The power of not caring what others think? The power of believing in yourself? Doing what you love? Not living someone else’s life or plans for life? That is a real powerful thing being you! Explore your true potential and uncover your real joy! That’s what I am trying to do, beginning today, with my life… For the first time in my life, I want to NOT Care about what others think and live for myself! Come join my journey.. Lets try and be ourselves and please share your ideas with me!
Why Blogging???
I have always been a writing and reading freak! Somewhere along the road I dropped that habit. Since I am just being with my baby and ours is a small apartment in the pricey Silicon Valley area, I have no fields to plough or wood to saw 😛 … So my dear Husband insisted on me doing something so that I wont get cranky for the lack of a social life! First thing that came to my life was to write.. But about what???
Definitely, writing a book or being a Journalist is far from my capability now because I want to be seeing my baby girl grow right in front of my eyes and not on skype! I respect and envy the moms and dads who can do that. I am just so paranoid! Again, i have always been a people’s person and I love talking and meeting new people! The world is wide open here.. Lots to say and lots to see. Lets see how that goes..
What will this be about?
I don’t know, aha!!! Let’s figure it out as we go, yes? My dream blog has no boundaries.. No theme to pertain to.. I don’t think that sucks.. i remember, back when I was in college , there was this guy (I don’t remember who among my friends) one day replying to my comment on a game that Christiano Ronaldo played , as “Yeah right! You don’t even know how many players are there in a football team!” .. It took me an hour to make him understand that Yes I am a girl and Yes I have been religiously watching football since I was 4! Now, I doubt I would’ve had to do the same if I was a boy. I am not a feminist LOL. Just that, there will be no stereotypes allowed in this blog. I will blog about whatever comes to my mind. I love inspiring y’all with whatever good things I come across. It’s all about positive thoughts
