Introduce Yourself - ✨Welcome to Enletrada’s world✨ The start of a new journey //Mi presentación- ✨ Bienvenidos al mundo de Enletrada✨ El comienzo de un nuevo viaje. [ESP- ENG]
¡Hola Hivers! :)
Hello Hivers!
Bien, comencemos.
🌼 🌼 🌼
Okay, let's get started
Next, to you who read me, I am about to give you -perhaps, one of the most valuable things that we as humans have these days- a piece of my vulnerability, a piece of my soul, and above all, that openness and confidence that I admire in each one of those who dare to start in this community to create, in whatever field, genuinely and even with fear or full of doubts take the step and decide "to take the plunge" as I finally -after a long time- decided to do it.

Without further ado, I will reveal to you what "Enletrada" is, but beyond that, who Arianne is. Well, easy, I could tell you, I'm a Venezuelan girl and I'm 19 years old, but life is much more than that, our identity and sense of belonging that makes us define ourselves as "someone" goes much further.
Like a phrase I wrote when I was thirteen, "I am a truth with soul and full of life", it fills different concepts in the different aspects of being. Well, I am not attached to labels because I feel that we are constantly changing, but as humans we always need to belong to something and define ourselves in order to find ourselves.
¿Quién realmente soy? // About me

At this moment, I can start by telling you that I'm an apprentice writer, I love poetry and also a beginner artist, so in my blog you will find mainly my creations, valuable content related to these topics, poems, reflections accompanied by images taken by me and sometimes reviews of books that I currently read in the section #Enletradarecommends, as well as document the creative process (humbly from my beginner student level) of what I usually paint, as well as some articles that are related to Art in the section of #EnletradaART. I’m so excited to say that there will be many valuable surprises in relation to the creative content and I’ll do my best to make this blog a dynamic place.
I have to emphasize that thanks to poetry and art found me, today I can live and tell about it. Letters and art have given me shelter in the darkest nights and days where the sun dazzled instead of embracing my soul with its warmth.
“Los artistas y creativos se mueren de hambre” “Estudia algo con salida” // “If you are an artist or creative you’ll never earn money” "Study something with a way out"

Aunque algo que debo aclarar (sumamente importante) es que tu mejor mentor eres tú mismo, siguiendo siempre tu intuición, tu voz interior, experimentando y “viviendo tu vida siendo consciente de cada detalle”.
Who hasn't heard this if you are someone who writes or relates to art? Well, I tattooed these phrases in my mind, and I never thought that creative writing and art would be something to take seriously until three years ago -in an attempt of courage and an act full of confidence, which was a great process of learning, unlearning beliefs and empowering myself- I started to do it, thanks to teachers, mentors and people of the medium that I admire a lot who told me "until you don’t trust yourself, things won’t flow, we all have potential but if you don’t work in your self-confidence and self-esteem nothing works" and that's how it was. So I decided to get down to work and I started writing "seriously" and took writing courses and training my poetic muscle in places like "La Poeteca" (A kind of poetry school in my city), mentoring with my dearest @beaescribe and I am currently studying a diploma in World Literature and I also study painting and drawing in an academy.
But something that I should clarify is that the best teacher in art stuff and creative processes is you, following your intuition, hearing your inner voice and just “living your life and be aware of every single detail”

Sigamos.
Let 's continue.
En cuanto a creencias me considero alguien que busca respuestas constantemente y formula su propia verdad, me considero alguien que intenta mantener un estilo de vida holístico, por lo que en esta cuenta a veces habrá contenido que cuestiona y busca la libertad del ser (desde lo creativo) y no encerrarnos en dogmas (spoiler alert). 🧘🏻♀️
As I mentioned before, I am a Venezuelan girl, studying Literature at the university, a foodie who loves vegan food and nature in all its aspects. I love traveling, having new experiences that nourish my life (even if it takes us out of the comfort zone), music in general (although I still find it hard to accept that sometimes I enjoy reggaeton in some meeting I go to, I'm still in denial) and art in all its expressions.
In terms of beliefs I consider myself someone who constantly seeks answers and formulates his own truth, I consider myself someone who tries to maintain a holistic lifestyle, so in this account sometimes there will be content that questions and seeks the freedom of being (from the creative side) and not lock us in dogmas (spoiler alert).
🧘🏻♀️
✨ Mi compromiso // My purpose
I believe that whatever we do, no matter how small, must lead to a greater good, so my purpose is that while I document my learning process, this journey, we can all learn, share ideas, see poetry and everything creative, from another perspective. I invite you to feel, to open up and make this space, together, a safe place to allow ourselves to be vulnerable and grow, with what resonates with you, who read me.
Thanks a lot for reading and giving me the chance to be with you virtually, dear Hiver.
I’m absolutely grateful to @rutablockchain and @bluemist for supporting this project.
Let’s interact on Instagram! follow my project @enletradaa (yes, with two A) and @ariannegmr which is my personal account.
See ya!
