I abandoned my blog, yet again.
A lot has happened since February:
- We moved to a house
- I was heavily involved with Fiesta San Antonio
- I started a new job
- I started running again
- And I've been vacation planning
So I let my blog fall to the back burner.
I also started to feel like I was caring TOO MUCH about social media. I was constantly thinking about my Instagram and my social media engagement. I was becoming obsessed with how complete strangers perceived me on social networking sites. I was feeling pressure when I wasn't posting or my posts weren't getting "enough" engagement. I was comparing myself to others and feeling anxious about if people on the internet who I had never met before found me interesting. How crazy does that sound?!
That's when I knew I was starting to go down the rabbit hole. So I yanked myself out of the negative social media vortex and have been laying lower than usual with my postings. Granted that I still post to either my Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter daily because I will never not be on social media. ( I mean, I've been loving the way the internet has been able to connect me to others since AOL homepages!) But I used to post with the wrong intentions. I'm changing that about myself. I want to make sure that my social media stays true to me and who I am, not who I'm trying to be.
So I'll try my best to update genuine content more often! And I've decided that though most of my posts will be outfits and what I'm wearing, that I'm also going to incorporate other things that make me happy. Like pictures of my animals, quotes that I like, scenes and images that make me smile.
With all that said: Hi, I'm Cynthia Edee, back from hiatus.
