Inspiration

I have a friend in my life, not someone I've known for very long, but a friend who has made me take a deep breath.  Her words made a river of tears stream down my face.  I sat there reading each line, each sentence, and it was complete raw emotion.  I thought to myself, how can someone sit there and post such intimate details about their life without a blink, a hestitaion?  I am a "writer" (a degree in writing and literature) and I could never bring myself to state anything publicly until now.  I had this utopic realization, which is rare, that I too can do this. 

So for all you readers of Release Me, I am not sure if my thoughts or timeline of days will keep you interested, but this blog is for me... to stop keeping it bottled up in a journal and to live out loud on the internet and in the moment.  Time to get up and face the new world... 2011... a year where I will have my ups and downs like any other year.  Tomorrow I will be 28 years old and ready to follow that yellow brick road and move forward in my life.
