Welcome to me

Ok, so today I sat and thought about all that I have overcome, all that I have achieved, and how I am constantly challenged to be me daily. I have often sat and wrote spoken word to express the experiences that I have experienced. But today, I was browsing through friends on facebook and came across this blog site. I must say that when I began reading the blogs of this highly intellectual young man whom I consider a "honest friend" I was so inspired and encouraged. Sometimes in life we sit and we think that we are the only people that have plenty to think about, to say, things we want to change and how we want to be different and slowly but surely reality sends us a reminder that hey, the world does not only inhabit you.
This past weekend I broke through some of my own fears. I was not afraid to be me around new friends, whom I had previously tried to impress because I was attracted to them. I was me, and free, without worry and finally I was comfortable. I have also found new peace in prayer. I have been searching my spirit lately in hopes of finding and releasing the Isaac I love regardless of what society, school, peers, and family want of me.
Well because this is my first blog I will end it seeing that I need to finish some reading.
