The blinding white screen in front of me is like opening a door to a yard full of fresh snow. Beginning to mar it with words like taking a step out and eventually filling that yard with playful footprints.
I can’t tell you how many posts just like this one I’ve made through all the years. I’ve been blogging and writing on and off since before it was really a thing on the internet. When we used to have to do it manually with HTML and had what we called ‘micro blogs’ that eventually turned into twitter posts. I’ve started many but never really stuck to one. So one could say this is probably doomed to fail, sooner or later, but I prefer to shine with a little bit of optimism at the beginning.
That’s how most things start don’t they? All those goals and hopes and dreams are at the beginning of every project. It’s mustering the determination to continue pursuing it day after day, week after week, that make it come to fruition or not. I’ve often failed in that aspect. Whether its laziness or adhd or life gone crazy or some other excuse. I flit from project to project and it’s something I’ve become very cognizant of this year in particular. Something I’m trying to desperately stop.
So here we are. With me trying to put metaphorical pen to paper again. This place is probably going to be largely a brain dump. A place for musing as well as updates to my community. Sometimes it may have content of more substance. We’ll see. I’m just going to go with the flow and see where this river takes me.
