I wanted to write a post about a brand that I feel it’s very dear to me. Not because I know the founder, or anyone who’s involved for that matter, but because it’s something I think about doing all the time. Last year, I had a sort of attempt to open my own online product shop. With a friend, we started to develop a plan, on what we wanted to do, what sort of things we wanted to sell and the path we wanted our brand to follow. Sad to say it didn’t work out, for several reasons, but I still have the goal to make it work by myself. I love stationary, post cards, messages, letters, frames, photos and anything that can have a personalized message to offer to a loved one. I melt when I’m inside Paper Source or Papyrus, or browsing through Sugar Paper‘s website. Last week, me and M talked about it because I’m feeling, a little bit useless, these past months. I’m having a hard time trying to find a job, being 26 and feeling like I should be doing something more. People don’t let you in on their little secrets, especially not when you’re feeling down and I have a tendency to shut down and not talk about it with anyone but yourself. I have a plan, I just have to make it happen. After the plan comes will and you have to be willing to take all there is into making it work. I could use a little honesty in my own life and, for what it matters, I really appreciate all your support – even if it’s not shown out loud, I know you’re out there and it means a lot. That’s why I’m still here. Having said that, I want to share with you a promise I’m making to myself, to be more active and present in my own life and to take what I want into action. This and being a #GIRLBOSS.
