Everything has a beginning...

Hello world wide web. This is my first attempt at blogging. I have decided to blog about being in a long-distance relationship for a number of reasons. One, is that as an aspiring Marriage and Family Therapist, I hope that the experience will be cathartic. Two, I am hoping to write a book about the subject one day, so I figured a blog may be a good place to start. Three, I am aspiring to use this blog to communicate with others that are in long-distance relationships (from here on out LDRs) to brainstorm topics that could go in a book on the subject, etc. Four, I would like to give advice to people that may be starting fresh in a LDR, since I am an MFT intern (not licensed), and because I have had a successful LDR. Read that as advice, not therapy!! And finally, it may provide some people out there with some entertainment. So this is probably boring as blogs go, but remember, I am a blog virgin. I need to think some more about what I want this to become, talk to my partner about what I can disclose, choose some photos to upload, etc. So I hope to be sharing more about myself and my partner with people out there soon!!
