So Here's the BIG Reveal!

If you happen to follow this blog in its early stages, you'll know that my blog had been in different directions, landing on different categories in the blog-o-sphere.

How did this blog come to be?

Back in November 2011, I've immersed myself in this world of travel bloggers.  Hitting on links that had the words travel, budget, fun,world in it, and discovered that there are a few very fortunate people who travel the world and get paid for it.  The thought of that elated me and gave me a surge of excitement and fantasy, thinking that I could be him too!  That lousy ass dude who has another selfie picture behind, him yet again, another UNESCO Heritage that I've been dying to go to.  That grin on his face, saying to me, "Haha, I bet you want to be here, and get paid!".  It was personal.  I was envious.  And what any other jealous person would do but to heed to the inner gut voice saying 'me too!'.  And there I gave birth to 'Shy on Foot'.  A blog bred out of envy of other people and my lust for life.

Not good right?

Two international trips and 6 local trips later

I soon realize that I don't have the patience to list down all the details.  It's tasky, and it rids me of some time to have fun.  Instead of me anticipating for the next destination or even chat with my friends or either my brothers and sister about what fun we had just experienced,  there I was, listing all the information in my handy-dandy notebook.  No bueno.  I also found myself in times where I wanted to defecate, for the lack of better words, the emotional shit I have had, and I happened to choose this blog as my toilet seat- a go-to place for my relief when my friends already had a truckload from me. Thus  this emotional constipation took its form in words, or what modern people call these days as journal writing

But too much emotional shit gave this blog different directions.  It was a hot mess.  

So the whole point of this post was to clean everything up, and give this blog a streamlined direction and format. It will still be a journal blog.  But this is not only dropping ideas and leave it floating there.  Ok I promise, enough of this shit reference).  I figured I would create something useful for everybody.  A lesson at the end of each post.

What I really was trying to say is that this blog would feature life lessons that I've picked along as I try to pursue my dreams.

Really, that really was it.

What started as something out of a negative emotion had lead to something positive.  Like in life, it doesn't matter what or who we were in the past, but who we made out of it in the present. The power of choice.
