worth it
my friends and people always ask me, “why do you blog, do the ‘youtube thing’, and spend so much time to do this? what motivates you?”
i do it because i love connecting with people, sharing lessons that i learned that may save others, express myself and spreading lighted-heartedness and open deep dialogue. THIS completes the part of me who wants to be a counselor/therapist.
most of all, i do it because it may impact others in a positive way. here’s a sweet note that makes it all worth it:
subject title:” You have no idea how much you have helped me.”
“Hi, I’m _______.
I grew up in the bay area, but continued to move all over north America. Im now working as a makeup artist in Toronto. I was talking to an old Friend in Oakland and she told me about your vlog on youtube. My background, with moving, and having a family tree that has Asian, Middle eastern, Native, & European. On top of those oddities ive become a makeup artist for film/TV, makes dating difficult as the schedule and work means any hours and traveling a lot. I often don’t fit into any one click, too much an American for the Canadians, too white for my Asian friends, and something else for everyone else. Always seems the other half of me is wrong.
I just wanted to say thank you, i found you blog and it reminded me of home, gave me some confidence in trying to tackle dating again in a new city. And your so cute ;). Keep it going, your helping people, I appreciate what your doing.”
this was my highlight of my morning, what is yours?
