Starting This Thing

I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now. Not because I think I have anything particularly groundbreaking to say, but because I want a place to process my thoughts and document this weird, messy journey we call life.

Why Now?

Honestly? I'm not sure. Maybe it's because I've been feeling the need to get things out of my head and onto paper (or screen, I guess). Maybe it's because I want to look back in a year and see how I've changed. Or maybe I just like the idea of having my own little corner of the internet.

What to Expect

I'm planning to write about:

• Life updates - What's happening, what I'm working on, how things are going
• Reflections - Thoughts on experiences, lessons learned, things I'm figuring out
• Random musings - Whatever's on my mind that day

No theme, no niche, no pressure. Just me, writing when I feel like it.

Getting Started

To create a new post, just add a .md file in the content/posts/ directory with frontmatter like this:

---
title: "Your Post Title"
date: "2024-01-15"
description: "A short description"
tags: ["tag1", "tag2"]
author: "Jess DeJong"
---

Your content here...

Here's to starting something new. Let' see where this goes.
