Hello everyone. I’m pretty sure this is my first official post here. I know I could check, but I don’t see the reason to. If I have posted before let’s just pretend I didn’t. OK? I’ve been lurking for years (since around 2005 I think, but that’s not important) without creating a name for myself until a few months ago when I had the urge to say something, which was a wild idea for quiet-old-me, but I didn’t – at least I don’t think I did (please refer comment regarding suspension of disbelief/laziness).
Anyway, introductions (indoctrinations?) aside, I’ve recently come to a major and painful point in my life, and I’ve decided to force upon myself a change for, what I hope will be, the better. In my case, it’s participating in conversations more, and that includes message boards that I frequent. I feel that it will be a positive change for me and will help me become 1) more social 2) less self conscious about sharing my thoughts and 3) a better writer. The last one is, of course, related to message boards only – this one in particular because I expect someone to come alone and tell me how my grammar is wrong at some point in time (here or elsewhere).
So in the spirit of message board fun and embracing my new change, what are some major or minor life changes that some of you have forced/coerced yourself into? By that I mean something that you wanted to do but have been reluctant to for some reason or another, or didn’t want to do but decided you had to do it because it was what was best?
I am, as always,
Clearly Unclear
