Hey everybody! I know it's been a few weeks since I've had a blog post here. Rest assured I am okay and safe, so no worries there. That being said, I've had a lot of things in my life come to pass that has made my time extremely tight. For a while rendered my creative muscles for writing strained. I feel it's important for me to lay out all my cards on the table for you all. So let's see behind the curtain a little bit this week.
Since my last post, the relationship I was in ended and had me in a pretty dark place for a while. I've also started working a day job that I actually have come to love and enjoy immensely. Lastly, a creative project I started working on a year-and-a-half ago with some friends has really kicked off and is going well. I think I should explain a little more clearly on each of those.
Firstly the relationship bit of my opening. I'm really not going to get into it here, because I honestly don't want to. It had me rattled for a while and made things really hard on me mentally. It just kind of sucked, I really think that that is huge understatement but I cannot think of bigger words to describe it. However, since then I've grown and I’ve gotten better. I'm thankful for the time I had with this person, and I'm very glad that we have remained friends. If anything, it is showing that I have a lot of personal demons I deal with.No one's perfect. I'm starting to realize that and accept it. So, even though it may hurt, it's good to know the world hasn't ended. A very close friend of mine once said, “pain is the best teacher, but no one wants to be in his class.” I can't help but say that he's absolutely right.
I started a job! I'm working at a physical therapy clinic as a digital media specialist. I have to say it's one of the best positions I could have asked for. It has a lot of great people there who have been absolutely stunning. It has floored me at how supportive they are, and how genuine they are. It blows my mind! I'm working on videos for them, like testimonials of clients who come in and have gotten help and improve their standard of living. I have also worked on tutorial videos which focus on stretches that can be done at home to help with different kinds of pain. I've been using my camera every day. Filming more and more content, and taking photos for the social media pages. I said it before, I'll say it again, I can't be more thankful. It is taking a lot of my time, but I wouldn't trade any of it for anything.
As for the creative project, there's not much I actually can say. In fact, that's all really I can say. I'm doing some writing and it's exciting. I'm working with some friends I've had for a very long time, and I couldn't think of a better group of people to work with on this outside project. So I’ll seal that up nice and tight.
Those are a few major things that are going and have gone on for the past few weeks. That still leaves the question. What happens to The Wanderers corner? I will be a hundred percent honest, I don't have as much time as I did this past summer, I may not be able to write as much. That being said, this is absolutely not the last post you'll hear from me. This may turn into a biweekly thing, this may turn into a monthly thing, it may not be on a Saturday. In short, just keep your eyes peeled for any posts that may come. They will still be nerdy, they will still be odd and out there, they will still be dealing with the things I love. Honestly just I’m going to let it flow and I hope you enjoy them. I will explore escapism as best I can with you, if you’ll join me. I just hope you all enjoy the ride. So, as always, keep your eyes peeled for the next post I look forward to hearing from you all in the comments.
