Fifteen years. That is not a milestone that crossed my mind when the creation of beauty is art. first launched. I didn't know if this blog would last a week, a month, or a year. I didn't know if anyone would read the words that I wrote or even care about the topics that interested me. There were so many unknowns. It all started during a transitional time in my life, when I was shifting from being a student to looking for employment in my field. There was a lot of uncertainty at that time, but this blog provided me with structure. It gave me an opportunity to write about all of the things that inspired me. It gave me purpose.
In honour of the fifteenth anniversary of the creation of beauty is art. it seems only right to highlight fifteen different blog posts. In total, there have been 2,705 blog posts written and over 6.5 million views. This little blog of mine has become a safe space for me - and a place where it is always possible to create and share. It is something that I am immensely proud of. Without further ado, here are fifteen posts that make me proud. These posts represent who I was and who I have become.
