How did I create my hashtag?

I've received some positive feedback already about my website & blog and I wanted to take a moment to thank the people who have taken the time out of their day to check it out. In my opinion, time is precious and the most valuable thing in the world. I appreciate all of you who are supporting what I'm doing. Which leads me into the topic of: how did I create my hashtag?

To be brutally honest, it took me quite some time to type out my concepts and ideas to my keyboard. Within the past couple of months, I've been able to have some time to myself and focus on my purpose in life. I moved back to Arizona to work at Salt River Fields for my third season and I cherished every single moment of it. On the day spring training ended, I returned home to California to gear up for my new adventure in Idaho Falls. For the people who know me personally, you know how I appreciate things that look aesthetically pleasing, I wanted something that looked great with my first name. Thinking of baseball terms and last week, I was sitting at my desk watching the Colorado Rockies playing the San Francisco Giants and a lightbulb moment happened. Everyone knows that the pitcher in baseball controls the game, along with the catcher. I'm in control of my own life and determine what happens. I will admit, the following months of graduating were a tough struggle, I wasn't pursuing my passion, my life significantly changed by not being a student or playing any sports. However, things started falling into place and I have to be patient and trust my own path. Everyone's path isn't the same and that is okay. It took me a while to realize that my best is all I could ever ask for and I can't force things to happen but I can attempt to go after what I want. Even if we fail at something, we learn from every lesson in life. I may not have it all figured out yet but just as a pitcher, I'm taking one opponent and one pitch at a time.
