We're Gonna Try This Blogging Thing Again..

So I originally created this blog about 9 months ago.. maybe longer. At first I had a different direction for my blog. I was going to post videos up of me and my friends, however, as 2009 went on we stopped recording our ridiculously stupid videos. So now, with it being 2010, a new year with a fresh start we are going to try a new blog with a fresh direction. Okay.. well I don't really know which direction that will be as of right now, but we will get there.
Watching the movie Julie & Julia (I work at a movie store, so you'll here a lot about movies) I realized that I wanted to start blogging. In the movie, Julie makes a blog about cooking, however, since I am not a phenomenal cook that is not something I can exactly do. There is not anything that I specifically do with a passion, nothing I can really devote a whole blog to. So, at the current moment, I do not have a direction with this blog, but you will hear about my life and what is on my mind at the current moment my fingertips are hitting the keyboard.
Now, I do not know exactly who is reading, or who will read.. but with all the people in the world, maybe one or two have staggered onto my page. And as for my friends reading create a blog! Let's share our thoughts.

On my mind today is something that probably comes through my head once a day. How do people find their passion, something they absolutely love to do? Everyday, people find their dream jobs, their passion. They're given this unbelievable opportunity at a job. A job they love and creates this will and want to perform their responsibilities in that line of work every morning they wake up. Or you have the people that have that one thing they are absolutely amazing and love doing. People like ice skaters, singers, athletes. Don't get me wrong, all of these people put in a lot of work, but they also have that one quality only some people possess. Raw Natural Talent. Why are certain people given these opportunities or talents, but others are not?
When I was younger, I thought everyone had a purpose and everyone had something they were good at. I guess I still believe that everyone has a purpose, no one can just be put on this Earth for no reason. That wouldn't be very nice on God's part. On the other hand, everyone being good at something.. Ha, that's a joke. I once asked an ex boyfriend of mine what I was good at, and would you like to know his response? Silence. He sat there with that thoughtful, almost dumbfounded, look on his face that he always used to get when thinking of an answer that stumped him. He then just sat there in silence, and said I am not sure. I really cannot think of one thing that I have a true passion for or that I am naturally good at. Now, don't get me twisted. I am a smart woman, I graduated high school 7th in my class, I've had my first job for two years now and although I may not be the Employee of the Month, I work hard, arrive on time and all that jazz. I'm just trying to understand how I find my calling, that one thing I'm spectacular at, the one thing that will surround my life with happiness. But that is what Life is all about, finding you talents, your passions and most importantly your purpose on this planet.
