I can’t believe I’m saying this but I was actually looking forward to writing tonight. I think my initial hesitation in creating a blog was due to feeling like I didn’t want to force people to read it, that Facebook posts give people the option to scroll past if they’re sick of hearing about my journey, no matter if it was going well or not. But I realized today that people don’t have to read the blog either. Just because I invite them to doesn’t mean they will. And that’s fine. I’m totally fine with that. And it means I can write more freely. Believe it or not I’ve actually had to curb my posting to Facebook, which is probably good because it has been quite a lot regardless. Occasionally I’ve wanted to say something more and have decided against it because of having shared already that day or about a similar topic. But now that I’m writing a blog I think I can write as much as I want. Right?! I had been keeping a daily journal but this is so much better. Typing is significantly faster than writing by hand, and it still gives me the ability to receive comments, if people feel inclined to leave them. So watch out friends, blog posts coming at you! I’ll aim for one a day, probably at this time of night. Who knows how long it’ll last, but for now it is therapeutic to get it all out, even if no one ever reads them. Thanks to Riss for the suggestion. Thanks to Michelle for listening as I blabbered out loud and came to the realization that people don’t have to read what I write. But if you do, thanks!
