My First Article Publishing Process

Overly excited about this situation is a wrong understanding of my feelings right now. My first blog article – my 10-year-old dream has come true. It took me a while, I know.
My heart is pounding like crazy right now.
I finally have the chance to fall in love with this amazing idea that I have nurtured for 10 years. I am literally shaking while I write.
The child that I was ten years ago – always a curious mind that was never satisfied with what she had – was browsing the internet in search of new things to learn. (I remember that back in those days, I had a professor that used to say that the use of the internet could be a treasure if used correctly).
And my brain perceived this information and transformed it into my entire personality, I think. I was constantly surfing the web, learning everything that sparked even the littlest attraction. I still do that, which is why at 30 I still do not know what I want to do with my life.
I was stumbling upon various subjects, but my favorite topic was binge-learning (just learning) to cook, especially to bake. I think the need to create a blog at that time was born from overloading my brain with information without practicing anything that I had learned. As a way of processing the information, I figured out that writing a blog would be the wise choice.
And it seems that my brain still thinks so because I have still wanted to this day to write a blog. Only the subject has changed, because I am grown up now. I still love to cook and bake, so maybe now I am just an improved version of myself.
Anyway, I digress. What stopped me then? And why can I do it now?
MY BRAIN. My brain only fully developed recently – last year, I think – and I lacked the necessary resources.
Now that I am a fully grown adult with my own money, I spend it in the most responsible way that I like. I have self-taught myself English by binge-learning English content, and now I currently wish to speak English at a native level.
I am good at writing (with a grammar and spelling check function enabled), but I suck at speaking, even in my native language. I cannot figure out how to express the storm of words in my mind.
These were the main resources that I had lacked. Now I have the money, the skills, the AUDACITY – because it is very much needed.
And I can say that I enjoy this little thing a bit too much.
P.S. I can say that I finally start to see reasons to live again after I nurture my inner child and live the life that I always wanted to.
If you’re feeling lost, you’re not alone. I’m on the path to figure out life’s big WHY and I’d love for you to join me. Let’s take it one day at a time and find meaning in this life together.
