"Beyond isn't a dream."

I saw this quote printed on a random shoe box at home and I found it very interesting to use as the first statement of my blog. I hope you find it inspiring as I did.

The birth of this blog has been inspired by a lot of things. First of all, I am officially unemployed today. The past five months I spent in Manila was a roller coaster ride I certainly do not regret. I could have chosen to stay and renew my contract, but a lot of reasons and factors have affected my decision of going back home. I have currently no solid plans of what job I will be aiming for soon, but I do know that I am ready to write a blog. I am a newbie in the blog world and I have tried (about 5 times already) to create a blog in the past, but I cannot seem to find the perfect inspiration to do one.

And now, I found it.

Intersections.

I have walked on countless intersections. The certain space where different roads connect is something most people would ignore, but I found my inspiration in these small spaces. For this blog, I am very grateful for the intersection located in the triangle garden in Makati.

I know there are numerous blogs out there. Some may be more interesting than the one you're reading now, or even more fun than what I am going to share, but I know this blog has served it's purpose when this blog inspires someone - to explore the world, to share his/her talents, to make a life-changing decision, to be his/her own self. If I can inspire someone, even if just for a few moments, I will be at peace knowing I have used the talent He has given me.

This blog will contain my journey on intersections - planned or random ones. I shall share my reflections on my most recent experiences (and maybe some memories as well). I will appreciate feedback and constructive criticisms, and I look forward to being a part of your lives. As I nervously encode the thoughts in my head, I would like to ask your patience and open-mindedness. Writing is something very special to me. Allowing people to read my compositions is something that makes me feel like I'm drowning in a huge pool of cold water. I hope you understand that there will be times when my pieces will reflect seemingly chaotic and random ideas. I will not sugar coat my ideas... I'll just arrange them in (sometimes very unusual) strings of poetic sense.

Creating this blog is beyond my expectations. Creating this blog is beyond what I can usually do. Creating this blog is beyond what I usually share. Creating this blog is beyond what my friends know. Creating this blog is beyond what I thought I already know.

Beyond. Truly a nice word to begin this journey.

I hope this first entry will be interesting enough for you to look forward to my next posts.

Until the next stroke,

Myra
