Who am I? Have you ever asked yourself that question. I bet you’re even embarassed by it sometimes. You shake your head and wonder why you still don’t know the answer by now. I can’t be the only one.
Right now, I am feeling a strong need to embark on a mission to find myself. Yeah I know it sounds cliched but I’ve been through a lot lately. I dealt with a lot of stress which led me to do the unthinkable recently…moving from New York City to a much quieter Hartford, CT.
As you can imagine, it has been a huge adjustment for me. For some reason, while living in New York, I lost myself in the midst of all the hustle and bustle. It sounds crazy but I really did. I was so caught up in work, the day to day and pleasing others, that I lost sight of the things that really made me happy. So with the new move, there’s plenty of time for me to rediscover those things. I’ve decided to use this blog to post all those forgotten things that bring me joy. Anything from excerpts from a great book, to an album review or favorite song. In the process I hope to truly figure out what it is that I like and who Ava really is. Care to join me for the ride?
Listen to my “finding myself” theme song right Here. It’s Nas, “Surviving the Times”. Cause these are some tough times I’ve been trying to survive.
