We are diving into the deep end this week. “Start your digital artefacts” we were told. Like I said in my introduction, having an online presence is something that I have wished to fade away over the years and now I have to have this online presence and get marked on it? If that isn’t a fear then I don’t know what is. I don’t like having my details online and people knowing my every move. I like to live within myself and live a life that no one knows about because who’s business is it that I’m eating an Açai bowl with my friends at 9am on a Sunday morning? No one but my own.
After wondering and wondering what I could possibly produce as my digital artefact, I asked myself, what do I enjoy doing? Many thoughts came to my head but the most present was my spirituality. But then that same thought came into my head, that’s something about my life that I don’t necessarily want to share with others.
Then I had it. What makes me happy? Making other people smile. I probably sound like such a typical white girl trying to shove some positive quotes down people’s throat but I want it to be more than that. I want people to smile at something they have just read. I want people to meditate because it improves their mental stability. I want people to talk to people about their feelings and not be worried about getting judged. I want people to open up and improve their mentality. I want to help others, if not everyone then at least one person. I want it to be unique but in the best way possible. I want to try improve the lives of adolescents who feel like they have lost their way.
I don’t know if this is right. I don’t know if I sound totally and utterly crazy and cliché but if I’m being honest I don’t really care. Why would I want to create something that would only benefit me and not others? If I were to do that then it wouldn’t feel right.
I don’t know how I am going to achieve this, but I guess I will find my way through it.
Spread Love, R.
