Who heard of the odyssey growing up once we all entered college? I know I did, but I couldn't commit to writing an article every week with playing college soccer and trying to stay on top of my classes. Now that I'm out of school and working full time, I can fit time in for writing about whatever I want. Now I know what you're probably thinking, I'm just writing because everyone else does it?
Wrong, I do it because writing has always been one of my things growing up. I just never went public with it. Writing helps get things off your mind and maybe even make a difference. I write from my experiences and jot down my thoughts about things I firmly believe in. I hope people take something out of the things I write about or get ideas about taking that next step or traveling more.
Everyone shouldn't be afraid to speak their mind about things they feel strongly about or what's on their mind. You just have to find a way to go over board. Writing helps improve your grammar, writing topics, punctuation and everything else for that matter.
If you've been thinking about wanting to write blogs, or for the odyssey, go and do it because you never know who can relate to what you write about or get inspired by you.
