We all have to start somewhere, right?

Hello community! This is as much an introduction, as it is a test run, as it is a bit of introspection. 

I actually have no idea how I found Steemit. Well, I do, but it was a random chain of events.. random enough that I thought I should dig deeper. As a complusive comment reader, I was hooked when I couldn't find a single deflammatory, obnoxious, comment that plague facebook now. You know- the kind that make you want to go off on them all and tell them whats REALLY up, but you don't because you know, rather then an intelluctual debate, you'll be met with absurd trolling and self defensive rebuttals. UGH! So I'm elated to be in a community in which that is not common place. Thank you!

My name is Marie. I am a mother of 3 children, and we have 3 dogs. We lived in Maryland all our lives, untill we finally decided screw this- why are we fighting to live in a city where the only thing rising is the cost of living and the crime rate. We moved to South Carolina, where I am grateful to have the opportunity to pay half the amount in rent, live 4 blocks from the beach, and be in the company of people who have the time and energy to be friendly to one another. In doing so, I left a cooperate sales managment position to have the chance to finally stay home with my kids, rather then paying someone else to do it. I love being home with my kids, but at times, I do miss striving for sales goals, accomplishing them, motivating my team, and just being able to do anything without the many ways that children make the simpliest things anything but simple. 

I'm taking some time now to do mental work rather then physical. I've never been depressed so I don't mean in that aspect- but just expanding my knowledge with different information about our subconcious and how it plays into our actions, vibrations, meditations, and living in love. I don't know where this has all lead me to, but I do know that I used to be a "stress till I figure out the solution personality", and I'm ALOT less stressed then I was prior to this self exploration. 

Often, I can be overly wordy. But this is because I love words. Other times, I can't find the words at all, and this to, is because I love words, and I just can't bring together the right ones.  Both of these things could also be attributed to the fact that I am far less intelligent then I feel, but option A certainly has a better ring to it.

As a previous workaholic, I've been rather bored and un mentally stimulated. I'm self guided at reading, researching, and learning, but I've been yearning for some DOING, so I'm looking forward to seeing where this journey goes, and hopefully providing some contribution to the community. Thanks for taking the time to read!
