I recently had the following conversation with some co-workers after mentioning that I was looking for inexpensive airfare to South Carolina:
Them: “Oh, what’s in South Caroline?”
Me: “A blogging conference that I’m hoping to go to in the fall.”
Them: “Oh. You blog? What about? Who is it for?”
Me: “Um. You know. Just life. And. Stuff.”
I am nothing if not verbose and descriptive. I really wanted to just smack myself in the forehead after that conversation. Why was I nervous about telling them what I write about? Why didn’t I mention that I happen to be a contributing writer for Allume, the conference I’m hoping to go to? Why was it awkward to say that I write about my faith, my family and my passion is encouraging women?
Nope.
Super post! Read it in entirety at the allume site. We constantly are evolving women for sure. God grows us a little each day and gives us the words to speak when necessary. :)
