Why an online journal?
Hello, there! Welcome to the Symbiotic CP Online Journal! This should be quite the interesting experience for you and I. See, writing has always been a passion of mine and while I’ve done a lot of it, I’ve never kept a journal… or written anything for who-knows-how-many people to read. However, I felt strongly that this was a good next step as I want to be able to share more about my life in a way that’s a little more raw and unfiltered than my videos. I absolutely love making my videos, but I only say so much in my videos because I don’t want them to be super long so I end up only saying what I think is most important about a topic and leaving the rest out. I think this is a good strategy for videos, but I want to be able to discuss all the facets of me having my disability in detail. Especially when I’m talking about important topics related to having a disability or stuff like my feelings and emotions. So this online journal is going to be the place where I write in-depth on my thoughts and insights. It’s going to be raw and probably a little messy, but I want it that way because hopefully it’ll show an even broader picture of what having CP is like for me. So we’re just going to jump into this and see where it takes us!
