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!
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.
