A writing discovery.

So I've been having difficulties coming up with a blog topic, then I figured why not talk about that? When I initially started writing, I had this idea in my head that the things I write should always have a purpose and be of an excellent caliber, but as time passed, I realized that wasn't always the case.

Blogging does not always have to be about discussing things that need to be heard by the majority. To be realistic, it can be as straightforward as writing about your day. Blogging, in my perspective, is essentially open-access journaling. 

We express our feelings simply by talking about them, and we receive a response that usually goes something like "I can absolutely empathize with this". There's something restorative about writing, even if it's about the most illogical of subjects. 

It's the human connection we feel while discussing significant moments in our lives that might have a completely different impact on someone else depending on where that moment reflected in their life.
That, I suppose, is the whole point. To write is to empathize and build a connection that we don't realize exists when, in fact, it's been there all along, going unnoticed amid the many other minor details.

For so long, I've been disconnected from one of my most productive hobbies, getting distracted by other significant life events makes blogging more of a secondary option, but it still stays valued. 

From not knowing what to write to typing continually without a pause, the long paragraphs come directly from emotions rather than actually paying attention to what's being written.

So to those days when there's nothing to write about...write exactly about that and watch it grow into a whole post then keep going at it!

  1. This post reminds me why I started writing in first place and encourages me to write even when I'm clueless. So glad to read your blogs again.

Getting to know me!✨

  Hey, this is my very first blog post and the last time I felt this much pressure was probably during my Alevel board exams!   So to begin with I would love to introduce myself, I'm a regular 17year old who wants to stay anonymous for the time being. I'm in my last year of Alevels so that means alot of big changes are coming my way! The thought of graduating actually feels unreal. I still remember the time I used to look at all the seniors graduating and think to myself "it's probably gonna take ages to get there and it looks like so much work" but now here I am graduating in just a few months! Time flies when you're busy worrying about why time isn't flying fast enough haha!  I also love being sorrounded by nature! I can't begin to tell you how many times I've stopped the most important work I'm doing just to stare at fluffy clouds and pretty sunsets!  I feel nature really connects humans to the beautiful big world we live in and sets ...

A "not so inspiring" blog post!

  So I've had some trouble thinking of topics to blog about and I thought why not talk about exactly that. When I first started writing, I had this idea in my head that the posts I write should always have an aim and should always be up to the level but as the days passed I realized it's not always going to be that way.   Blogging shouldn't always have to be focused on talking about topics that need to be heard by the majority. Honestly, sometimes it can be as simple as  "How my day was" or " How I completed a task that I didn't feel like completing". In my opinion, blogging is basically journalling that's open to the public. Don't you think?    We express our emotions by simply talking about them and receive feedback that usually goes something like "I can totally relate to this" which is what motivates me to continue writing! There's something therapeutic about writing, even if it's the most random of topics. I never ...

Early Morning blogpost!

 Since my morning classes start around 8 am, I thought I’d write a post before leaving. This post is actually just about my morning routine and how my usual day goes by.  As I’m an early bird, it’s usually a routine to wake up around 5 am on a weekday, also because I hate being rushed to do things early morning.  So my day usually starts pretty early and the first thing I do right after I wake up is to drink a warm glass of lemon water. To be honest, I initially didn't like lemon water because of its taste. But after noticing the differences in my skin and overall looking more hydrated, it became part of my morning routine.  Then it’s a pretty average day from there, attending all my classes and meeting up with my friends. The one thing I love about my school is their taste in tea! They serve the best warm tea I’ve ever had and that’s something we always look forward to and it helps keep our sanity throughout the day.  Tea and doughnuts are basi...
