Bloggers to the left of me. Bloggers to the right. In front. Behind. Stopping their blogging – temporarily. Or permanently. I understand why. Time. Priorities. Demands. Life. No inspiriation. No material.
Still, I want to keep going & push through. To consciously spend precious time on a computer recording thoughts, happenings, & epiphanies, mundane & fantastic. To push my brain to grow, my thoughts to go deeper, more detailed, & creative. Past the point where I’ve stopped before because it was too hard for me & something new or nothing was easier to give myself to.
I think it is a part of my life-mission to blog.
It sounds a little silly when I read the sentence back to myself, silently at first, but then out loud. Not that my life is defined by the act of blogging, but there is a sharpening of me, a growth that gets primed by the act of intentionally doing this. And for other reasons that I really don’t want to say right now.
So I will keep going.
I understand. Although I have slowed, I NEED to keep going. Stubborn? I dunno. But I must go post another blog. Good to hear from you.
I want to hear the other reasons, and I WANT TO HEAR THEM NOW!
Catharsis?
i for one am happy when you blog because you are not THE most vocal person i know and i like to hear what’s going on inside that brain. yeah for consistent bloggers!!!
Yay for continuing to blog, come what may! I am with you! And on that note, I should probably make up something to post about.
Writing is the creative expression of the soul, or something like that. I love it! Sometimes after I’ve written something I get more clarity than I had at the start and often God uses what I write to encourage me in a certain direction. So funny.
