It's been 6 months since my last entry! If I'm being honest, I've thought about my blog everyday since I started medical school. There were days I wanted to share the happiness I felt, or vent about the stress, or my fears, talk about the awesome friends I've made or some cool things I've learned, but then I would sit down to write and nothing would come out of me. No words. Lots of emotions (and let's face it, I'm not the best at sharing that), but no words. I was scared that if I started to just type cathartically, I would say something that I wasn't really ready to share and other times, I just had way too much that I wanted to share and I didn't know where to start! And, I still don't think I have words to share right now (sorry!), but I thought I should write something, anything. Truth- what motivated me to just sit and write was a session I attended today at school for a study that is starting regarding the practice of mindfulness and narrative medicine on emotional intelligence. It really got me thinking- why don't you blog anymore? Am I still creative, in the sense that I'm able to share how I feel, my experiences, etc... Has that courage left me? And I thought, what the hell, just sit down and write a post, something's bound to come out. So here I am, doing so. I can't promise that I will keep up with posting (I've yet to be steady on my blog), but I really do hope with time, I can find it within myself again to share. It would be truly amazing to be able to look back at this journey I am currently embarking on!
Happy New Year everyone! :)
