The Procrastination Beast

I was overpowered by the procrastination beast. This little furry fella who sneaks up on you out of no where, turns the clocks five hours ahead, and fills your calender with endless deadlines that you're sure to never make. Fortunately I became aware of it before this blog became completely stagnant.

In my first post I mentioned that I'd like this blog to be a place where I can share advice of sorts with any who may have an interest. Today the epiphany came to me that no one's going to volunteer themself to getting advice from someone they don't know a whole lot about. Who am I to give you advice?

Well, to be completely frank I'm not anyone all that special, but somehow I've been given a unique ability to write in a way that people can relate to. This small fact works out wonders when it comes to sharing advice with others. I won't swamp you with big words or point you in the direction of my sponsoring tycoons; and I won't give you advice that I don't feel confident will help you.

For years I've been a shoulder to lean on for many friends locally and around the world. When someone's having a down and out day, I feel assured that they feel safe talking to me and will walk away from the conversation feeling a sense of relief and understanding. Granted I'm not a therapist or medical professional, but I've been through my own share of pain and from those pains in life I've become the woman I am today. It's because of my trials that I'm able to empathize with the pains others go through.

So what makes me want to share advice with others? During some of my hardest times it was someone online whom I'd never met face to face that kept my head above water. It's through his support and dedication to our friendship that the grip of suicide did not take over me. In a way, this is my thank you to him for all he'd done for me. He's a wonderful person and I'm so grateful to have met him during the time that I did and I hope to pass that same sense of acceptance and support on to others who need it.

No one in this life is perfect and family members don't always know how to react when someone is battling depression. If you're feeling alienated, alone, unloved, and unappreciated. Please, send me an Email or contact me on Yahoo.

Tell me that I'm your call for help and I will be your shoulder. I've been to that place, where life feels pointless and continuing seems like more of a burden than it's worth. You do not have to fight that battle alone! Let me support you the way my dear friend supported me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope that your confidence in my sincerity has improved, even if only slightly. I truly am here to offer what help I can to others out there so that they may experience life the way I have thanks to the friendship I found online.
