I am not good at blogging :O

So! Needless to say I am not very good at blogging!! If anyone is wondering I never was any good at keeping a diary either! But I am going to start taking a different approach idea to blogging and that is I am going to think of it as a daily journal of encouragement. My daily journal of encouragement is going to have one of two focuses:

  1. To encourage others 
  2. If I can't think of something that day to encourage others I would think of a way to try to encourage myself? 
I have to say that starting a facebook page, blog and YouTube channel has definitely been challenging! I have unexpected results and emotions that I had no idea would come up. I have had complete strangers message me notes of encouragement - which I found incredibly awesome!! But then I have had where people who were extended relatives and who I thought were friends not bother to even get back to messages. I have had people even bully about the way I am approaching my situation. Stating that I am just complaining instead of being happy that I am not 'worse off', or I am not 'being positive enough'. I have heard all kinds of stuff!! 

Today is Thursday, which I teach a few lessons and have church tonight. Hopefully this week I don't have any crazy mix ups! Last week I had forgotten my glasses (which it's really a mind thing by now, because I have the songs memorized but cannot play without my glasses). So we ended up singing a Capella. I love teaching music! It can be incredibly challenging teaching music blind, but I can do it. I am actually planning a YouTube video about it which I am hoping to remember to share to my page. 

Anyways, today is just an ordinary day, which these days are very much enjoyed!
