Welcome to OnlyShans.
This is a thought board. A review, a reflection, a creative outlet, if you will, on thoughts about things that mean something to a late twenty something in the year 2023. A document of currency in feeling, what’s happening. What’s the status quo.
I had another blog wayyy back when. I remember working my summertime job going into my junior year of college circa summer 2017, bored out of my mind and in need of something to do. So I started this whole writing project. But that was then and this is now. Now I work a full time job, with some years of professional experience, moved a handful of times, had my heart broken, healed and then broken again. Just a lot of change that’s worth some story telling. To come from a place from actually lived out experience, as opposed to college student angst, is a reason this is going to be way more fun. To write, to learn, create relationships, discuss, get you thinking, or whatever it is you want to do. I intend to post every Sunday, on a weekly basis, and open this for discussion wherever it lands.
The theme of this blog is everything mid twenties. Motivations, thoughts, feelings, objects, places. But to narrow this down, the goal of this page is to structure it like a time piece, consisting of (give or take) six pillars of life that appear to be transition points in a young adult’s mind:
These are:
- Relationships/Intimacy
- Career/Finances
- Decisions/Choices
- Spirituality
- Physical body
- Random stuff that comes up (because we do our best to compartmentalize our lives but the universe doesn’t necessarily love organization)
A snapshot of the present and what these look like, written out, stories, letters, thoughts, this will be nice to bring in a new year.
Happy new years 🙂
Love,
Shannon
