Breif Hiatus

Friends,

Thanks for reading my blog. I’ve loved having your support thus far. What a treat it is to share my life, to be vulnerable in this way. It’s truly a gift, one I hope every person comes to revel in.

Sex abuse is a tough subject to be in contact with in anyway: hearing it, seeing it (maybe in a movie or T.V series), reading about it, simply knowing it happens out there, way out there, seemingly far away. It’s a hard topic to write on without perpetuating trauma, and the last thing I’d want to do is cause you to turn your face away from the topic, (though I’d completely understand if you’d need to). I’ve had to be creative about introducing the topic. I wonder if you’ve noticed the vagueness of it, my subtle hints toward it, in these two blog posts: The journey begins! and About a boy (and a girl too!).

Still, it’s the topic I hope to shed light on in this blog. Thanks for sticking around while I hash out some of the messy stuff that led me here, before you. There’s plenty of beauty to come, I promise! You're support has been heaven sent.

For this reason it saddens me to announce, I’m taking a brief hiatus. I’m a student and this semester is packed with 18 credits! All accelerated classes, 3 of which will start, finish and overlap, during these next 6 weeks. Whoa. What was I thinking? I wasn’t. I let my academic counselor think for me. Maybe I should have been a little more involved in the process… Oh well! I’m pretty organized. I’VE GOT THIS! But it’ll take all my extra energy and focus, every. single. shard. of it. I’ll have little leftover to invest in decent blog post but, I’VE GOT THIS.

I like blogging. I like you by my side. For those of you who can be patient just know that, very much like The Terminator, “I’ll be back!” Here’s to hoping for all A’s! Temporarily signing off, Lion Heart
