Better late than never but here we go.

For years, I thought about using this platform to write transparently and be my full vulnerable and true self. This idea came to mind back when I was in my last year in college, but this idea terrified me.

For some reason, I thought my decision to write freely would’ve hindered my future job search and impact my career opportunities. I was afraid of the judgement I would get from both friends to strangers, so instead, I decided to change the course of this website of mine and make it a food blog.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t regret capturing my food adventures (and I probably will pick this up again), mainly because I can never remember what I order at a restaurant, so I used this blog to share my restaurant reco with friends and so I can easily remember and reorder the same dish I got the last time I visited a restaurant. This made me appreciate food even more and gave me an excuse to take photos.

But after running away for so long, I’ve decided to finally take a leap of faith and blog about what I know best - living the Christian life in an urban city.

I’m not a pastor, I’ve had many battles and questions about Christianity, but most importantly, I’m just a human writing about what my experience has been like and will write about my challenges to blessings about (trying) to stand firm and follow Christ.

I can’t believe I’m going to actually start putting this out for the world of internet, but here we go.

Hello friends,

I’m Julia. I live in the city and I’m a Christian and no matter my doubts and the crazy trials of life, I’ve decided to write about the only truth that I believe in and try (I told you, I am human) to stand by proudly about my faith and relationship with Christ.

I decided to write about my experiences to hopefully help others know that they’re not alone in certain scenarios to non-Christians to ask questions, listen and learn, and even challenge me about anything I write about. This is also a huge part of who I am and I want my best friends to know this side of me on a deeper level to let them in on my life more too.

I’m nervous about posting this but it also feels right. It feels like this is something I should’ve done from the start. Oops, sorry for neglecting and running away (yet again) from you, God.

Alright, here we go.

Thanks for reading, friends. Stay tuned for more.
Julia
