My Beginning….

“To be with power is to have faith in yourself”

— Oscar Wilde.

This is the first post on my new blog. I’m just getting this new blog going, so stay tuned for more. Subscribe below to get notified when I post new updates.

-I have some very nice exciting things that are happening in my life right now. I decided, that I wanted to post about it and to ask you to take this journey with me if you dare. I will be blunt with my opinions so if you do not have an open mind, I suggest you don’t read these. I will also include inspirational quotes from no one other then the Amazing Teresa Young! šŸ˜‰ I will try to do this at least once a week to talk about my week and a little bit more about myself. Tomorrow will be the first day of my last first day of Fall Semester for my BFA degree!

Changes in my life since last Fall, include; getting divorced, losing my animals, losing family and friends, but gaining a new beginning. New chances. I am an artist and have been working on my BFA degree for nine years so far. But wait for it! *DRUM ROLL* I will be graduating Spring 2020!!!!!!!!!!

It has been a world wind of events this year but I am ready to conquer the world. The only one who is going to make me happy is me and I give that advice to anyone who reads this.

Survival-Writing in Laundry Mat

Me.

Just being me trying to survive this world like everyone else. It has been awhile since I have wrote in this blog.

Let’s see. I want to say this may be the best part of my journey. I always use to think that I was truly happy and maybe I was at a time.

However, I have never felt like I have now. So mentally happy. I certainly still have my days but I can tell I am healing. I can tell that whatever I am doing during the day, or the people I surround my self with is really working.

My dreams are usually negative and I have many nightmares. I never stick up for myself in my dreams. They are always interpreting my fears or what I worry about in the day and make it worse in my dreams. Now, I actually voice my opinion in my dreams and don’t let most people run over me in them. I am less scared. Gosh, you have no idea how amazing that feeling is. To conquer your fears in your dreams our things you are subconscious about.

Not only that, times when I feel like I am going into emotional relapse, I surprise myself. I recover so much faster and easier. Even if I feel at that time that I will sink right back in to the old me, I prove myself wrong. That is another huge great feeling.

Happy Note: I am super super happy about I have set up my apartment šŸ™‚ I have my art posted every where on the walls. I have two paintings that I am currently working on in there. I finally have set up my balcony the way I want it! I am going to try and start writing more. I feel a relief when I do even though I know my writing will be judged, but then again I don’t care.

I am just writing to release and for anyone who would like to read.

I get my tonsils out October 29th. Super excited to finally get them out. It has been a long time coming.

I am currently starting the process of applying to graduate school. Super exciting that I am finally at this point. Asking for my references, getting artwork together and my artist statement.

My sculptures are really coming along. I am so damn excited for my life! There are many many many obstacles at this moment. But you know what? I am going to get through them.

Oh, I am totally typing this while in the laundry mat. It is super relaxing to me. Also, it makes me super happy to wash clothes so early on the weekend so that I can enjoy and rest the rest of my weekend.

So many people say I work too hard, I deserve rest. I will rest when I finally feel successful in what I am doing. I have to have that feeling before I rest. Surprisingly, that is this weekend šŸ™‚

Everyone, have a blessed day. Know that you are important. Know that your past does not define you. Know that people love you. Know that YOU WILL SURVIVE!

Alright, Alright, Alright

Alright, Alright, Alright. Looks like I have had two views so far. Woot woot! May only be by default šŸ˜‰ .

This week was probably one of the longest weeks ever. School started back up so I have been pretty busy with both work and school. I love it though, keeping yourself busy, stalls your mind from thinking of other things. However, my body is not too excited about the recent changes of what I am doing! šŸ˜€

Let me start with a good thing that has happend for me this week. I lost inspiration of pursuing my art this summer due to lovely boulders in life sticking themselves out in the road. I could not wait to get back to school.

The Art community within UT Tyler has been very eliberating and healing to me.

I basically talk with everyone, no matter if they are quiet or loud. So when they came in while I was working, they all said hi and gave me a hug. I can not tell you how much I love connection and the art community. I have never felt so comfortable in a group before as I have with my art friends.

Not only that, but I have gained my inspiration or light from what i want to do with Art and why I do it. About damn time! I hate that I lose things within myself because of other people. Again,that is something I am working on. Something I will continue to work and focus on. Going back to school was something I have desperately needed. To feel apart of something greater is a strong emotion.

Anywho, this weekend is going to be a great weekend. I will tell you about it next week šŸ˜‰ Feel free to tell me how your week was in the comments and I will give you a pep talk šŸ™‚

About Me:

Questions you may ask. Why do you want to post about your life online?

  • I am not only about expressing myself through this blog, I want to give others inspiration.
  • I would like to not only talk about my life and how I have felt the past year but to let others they are not alone in how they fee.
  • I have had multiple negative thoughts and positive ones but I want to focus more on the positive.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • I keep a personal journal but I want to help others and this is another way of me healing.
  • I will write about my life and express my feelings. I will most likely share the most exciting part of my life. What I call, my Teresa’s Greatest Adventure.
  • If I blog successfully throughout the next year, I hope to accomplish hope and inspiration into others.
