Tomorrow’s the Day

“Courage is not the absence of fear, rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear, the brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all. From now on you’ll be travelling the road between who you think you are and who you can be, the key is to allow yourself to make the journey” Dear Reader, welcome to my first Blog Post! I’ve decided to start a blog on the eve of a new chapter in my life, so here goes… There is loads of story lines about a girl moving to the Big City and the adventures she comes across, so I’m going to see if that’s in anyway true. I am moving to London tomorrow, a bit of a change from my small, historic market town that pretends to be beside the sea and milks any claim to fame it possibly can. (sorry for the dig Ashby de la zouch). I want to use this blog to write about my experiences and maybe to record any possible exciting adventures, but more likely to help me to figure out my place in the world and perhaps to help you reader to do the same or just to entertain you as I share this exhilarating and nerve-racking new chapter of my life with you, and Hey, if it’s any good it may become a best-seller in your local bookstore one-day.  The quote above is a quote I’ve known from my childhood, thanks to ‘The Princess Diaries’ and it came back to mind as my moving out day drew closer. A big change of leaving home, moving from a small town to a big city, starting a new job, a new course so many new things whether it feels terrifying or exciting it still takes courage to make that step of faith. This blog would have nothing to record if I wasn’t brave enough to take the risk that I could just fall flat on my face. I’m titling this blog ‘A New Chapter’, because it’s the next step for my life, and it’s the beginning of a new journey, to a new place, to a new style of life where I’m going to make more mistake, learn more lessons and discover more about who I am.
