New to the scene

I have always wanted to start a blog but I didn't feel I had the artsy flair to share my thoughts with the immensity of readers here on the internet.  


Now, let's take a beat here, I know odds are that no one will read this however, there is a sense of freedom to divulging one's thoughts on a forum of such public nature.  


When I was creating this lovely online journal of sorts I reached the page which asked for a domain name.  Knowing that I was a conformist sap in a sea of artsy, unique, and deep bloggers.  My domain name had to be catchy and thought provoking, my first thought was pick something from the native tongue of my ancestors, Gaelic, sure I don't know but a small lick of the lingo but hey, when people see Siocháin,  Grá agus Sonas (peace, love, and happiness) they will take a step back and worship my deep, emotional soul (because they have no idea what that means) and maybe, just maybe I will be accepted into a society of bloggers well, I didn't do that because I began to question my integrity. (I'm quite dramatic) How did I have the courage, nay, the audacity to pretend to be someone else on the internet?! 
(wouldn't be the first time that's why we all hear those warnings about sketchy chat rooms) 


But I digress (I'm a big fan of tangents and I am a sesquipedalian for all intents and purposes) 
I chose the domain name that I chose for a simple reason, on the outside it seems deep and thought provoking but in reality, it is the title of one of my favorite songs, sung by a British boy from YouTube.  


The name can be seen in a few ways, either its a deep, emotional view into my soul or, i googled "good names for blogs" (I did but i didn't like them) or, I cast aside what people might think of my choices and picked something that I enjoy. 


Not to be Cliche, (But I'm going to be) but I feel like there's also a lesson to learn and/or never forget in every action that we partake in and all we have to do is be open to change and let it into our lives.




I'm not sure if this is how blogging works but, I gave it my best shot, and it is quite relaxing.
