A Week Without
courtesy solarnavigator.net |
I didn’t mean to go a week without saying anything, it just kind of, happened. In reflection, I think that was a good thing.
I loved participating in the A to Z Blog Challenge, and I was successful. However, I think I needed the break afterwards to think before I write. Blogging covers such a broad spectrum of writing. It can be a cathartic journal, a calendar of “what I’m doing”, or it can be articles, ranting and raving, recipes, weight loss record – just about anything. For me, it is a blending of many things.
However, like I tell my kids – if you talk all the time it is easy to start saying nothing. Your time is precious and I have a renewed goal of making this blog worth your time to read.
It’s Monday morning and we’re all trying to get going, so I’ll leave you with this –
Success is never final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts. Winston Churchill
That's why I'm a man of few words.
There are many days when, I really have to think long and hard, in order to find something to blog about. So, yes, I totally understand you.
I was not nearly as successful in my A-Z blogging as you were, but I really feel what you are saying here. I often worry that I will end up sounding trite more often than I sound sincere. I loved the A-Z Challenge and even though I didn't pull off an every single day blog, it kind of wiped my blogging brain a little bit. I also think that in some ways it sent me off in a direction that I didn't mean to go, which is good and bad…sorry I'm rambling. 🙂 Nice post, I definitely relate (probably could have just said that at the beginning and avoided the ramble)!
I love Winston Churchhill! (and you too!)
… but, in the morning I'll be sober.
