My voice

I think people should be free to do things in a way that makes sense to them. They don’t have to meet my, or anyone else’s, standards. I may have a preferred way that I do something, and that doesn’t mean that anyone else has to do it that way.

I have spent much time trying to figure out what the “right” way to do something is or what the questioner is looking for in the answer to their question. Now I want to spend my time trying to figure out how I want to do the task at hand and how I want to answer a question. This is not always easy. I am a woman of am certain age who grew up with the understanding that what I wanted and what I thought was never as important as what anyone else wanted or thought. No one ever said that to me, but I still grew up with that understanding.

My goal now is to say what I want if you ask what I want. My goal is to state my opinion if you ask my opinion.  I am trying to find my voice. Wish me luck!
