It’s been a long while since I’ve written anything on this blog; almost 3.5 years since my last post. But even before that, I had been absent and very quiet for years.
This has also extended over time to me taking a step back from many social media channels like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram; and not being as active as I once used to be.
I’m not quite sure why this has happened. I’d probably blame it on life, the changes and whirlwind of events it puts us through; work, with its busyness and different ups and downs; or maybe time, or lack thereof, amidst the competing priorities of family, work, life, …etc.
But that wouldn’t necessarily be fully true.
Part of it is that I just didn’t feel like writing, and maybe more importantly didn’t feel like I had anything worth sharing or writing about.
My wife always jokes that I have this uncanny ability to make certain everyday things sound trivial. I wonder if, in some weird way, that’s something I ended doing to my own writing ideas too, just swatting them away as negligible or unworthy of putting out there in the world.
But I miss writing, especially on this blog. For years, it was a great outlet for me, a place where I could share my thoughts and ramblings about the world, comment on news or events happening around me, talk about some of the personal things going on in my life, or just dump whatever I found interesting around the internet.
So, I’m going go try to slowly get back into it, and step by step make it back to writing more, and just sharing whatever the voices inside my head keep telling me.
I don’t know if it’ll work or not, what frequency I might be able to post at, or if anyone will give a rat’s ass and read any of it, but I know that I want to give it a solid try, because I think I personally need to, and well, because I think that with all the craziness going around in the world, there should be no shortage of topics for me to comment on.
So here goes nothing!
