Why Am I Doing This?

Dear Universe,

Someone once asked me why I write. My answer was simple; "Because it makes me happy."

That is all we want in life right? To be happy. Ask anyone why they do what they do and in one way or another their answer always leads back to their pursuit of happiness.

Over the last two years my life has done a complete 180* change, in my own pursuit of happiness. And all of my changes and choices have led me here. To this blog. To my Facebook page, if you follow it, and to these posts. Me writing for you and well, for me too.

When I started my Work In Progress Facebook page it was because a dear friend of mine suggested it. We had both recently watched the movie "The Secret" and have started making positive changes in our lives. She suggested I start a page to post my positive quotes, happy little notes and photos that I collect from the books I read and the blogs I follow.

So, A Work In Progress was born, on Facebook.

Now, what does that have to do with this blog?

Well, someone asked what my Work In Progress page was for...and my answer was simple...a positive place to share quotes and happy thoughts. But, if I am going to have a page dedicated to it, and want to share more, then what? I don't want to post long status updates and posts on Facebook just to fill up my friends' new feeds. Shyfexy was the name of a blog I started several years ago when I first heard about "The Secret" and wanted to follow my dreams of living a positive lifestyle. It was then forgotten for years and eventually deleted. I figured now is a good time to bring back my old namesake and give it a newer, positive title.

So, here I am. A Work In Progress. Always learning. Always growing. Always Changing.

Love,
