There Is a First Time for Everything

Last year, when I ran my first marathon, it was harsh, but at the end I said to myself: there is a first time for everything. And it kept me thinking. There really is a first time for everything. The first time to go to school, the first time to be in love, the first time to drive a car, the first time to move to another city, the first time to be a mom, and the list is endless. There is literally a first time for everything in this life. But sometimes we forget that.

People sometimes ask me, aren’t you scared to do things? In fact, people who know me know that I like to do crazy things. I’m not going to write these down, because I don’t want to give you ideas, but maybe I like adrenaline a little too much. However, my answer is that of course I get scared, but I tell myself: do it anyway. Do it scared, do it slow, but do it anyway.

Writing wasn’t really my thing until four years ago. I had some ups and downs in life, and writing became my therapy. Since then I have written countless pages, and this is what helped me through many obstacles, and also helped me to see clearly what my heart desires. I love that I have the ability to turn my feelings into art. This is also how many of my drawings are born. And I hope that whatever your passion in life is, you can do the same. And if you are scared to do it, always remember that there is a first time for everything.

When was the last time you did something that scared you?

Welcome to my blog.
