Hi, you can call me Nour
(but my full name is Nourhan)
Nourhan; the light of the moon...or so they say, but for as long as I could remember, my entire family loved to share the meaning of my name. My aunt called it 'strong', my grandmother said it was 'fitting' and my mother would smile and look at me repeating it time & time again to complete strangers. "Oh, its pronounced nour-han…it means light of the moon," as she smirked. I could modestly agree with my name being fitting. It's given me confidence, power and stability. It's paved a path for all thats to come, no matter how difficult the struggle. The real world has not been forgiving, I guess thats why I'm here spilling it all into a social media platform.
I'm a Brooklyn girl who comes from two beautiful worlds with dreams more vast than the Atlantic ocean. I want to write, read, laugh, travel, eat and fall in love; endlessly. I want a family, but a stable career enough to satisfy my independence.
I don't want to identify with a blogger, because I think this is more than just blogging. Maybe its a form of therapy in a weird way, but what I want this website to do is to promote hope. I want to be able to talk about anything I find interesting and simply hope for someone to read, agree and not think I'm crazy for rambling on. I mean, I can talk (and write) for hours, so I'll be writing about random things such as beauty, fashion, love, feminism, religion, pop culture and even current news.
I've been talking myself in and out of this idea for a year now. I don't know what kind of audience I'll gain, or if I even gain one at all. I'm scared of failure, but I love my voice more. And how can you fail if you never take a shot?
