A Change of System

KC J. Hutchins

Hey everyone! My apologies for not posting in a while. A lot happened in those months, but I believe I’ve got a plan in motion. Currently, I’m studying SEO to better understand the language of search engines. What’s SEO? It stands for Search Engine Optimization… which basically helps me understand how to set up my site and online presence so more people can see my stuff. That being said, this particular page will change… hopefully for the better!

With this new commitment in mind, I’m learning a bit of graphic design and looking to buy some new equipment if money comes around to finance this endeavor. That last part isn’t much of a guarantee at the moment, but anything can happen. I’m trying to stay more positive and look ahead so I can grab my future. I’m blessed with the gifts I’m given in this life so far… and I want to hold onto them. To work hard to become a creator whose works bring smiles and enjoyment to others… for them to escape to other worlds and find relief in life… to make my family proud… that’s my aim. But beyond even that… I’m doing it for myself. My self-esteem is very low, and it’s of my own doing. Every day I ridicule myself for not getting farther in my career and life… when in reality I need to stop this behavior. All it does is set me in a bad cycle where I don’t try to get out of it because I don’t think I’m worth it. But that ends today. With these new steps taken forward, I will forge my own path to success. It’s not the easy way… but it will be my way. I thank you for supporting me thus far… and I you’re about to see a much better version of me.

Yearbook Find

KC J. Hutchins

Today, I found myself looking at some old yearbooks. At first, it was a distraction from the scrapbooking projects I’ve put off for a while. Looking through the pictures I realized how camera shy my younger self was to the class. It was to the point I was feeling like an outsider to my class. That was until I got to the very end of the album. In my mind, I thought most were avoiding me at the end, but it came to a surprise when I saw all the notes and letters written to me. Complimenting me on my talent, but also another feature of mine I thought was lost at that time. Line after line I read as others thought of me as caring and watching over them like a big brother. Thinking of others before myself, to the point they encouraged me to start taking care of myself. It’s funny how we view ourselves differently as time goes by… I was quite certain most people thought of me as a bother and spewing complaints. It was refreshing to see others thought so highly of me at one point. So, I encourage you to take a step back and find the positive in yourself… and in the event you cannot find it… ask a friend or loved one to show you the way.
