the plight of my blog.

my apologies for weeks gone by with no posting, folks! sometimes i wonder who actually reads this thing. but i know deep down i write because i need to, because it's good for me, and anyone who joins me here and ends up reading along the way is just an added blessing heaped upon my head, an additional spurring-on for me to continue sharing, and confirmation to me that when we are willing to share we will never be alone on our journeys.

so, i'm here. :) i never went anywhere. i've been here all along. :) sometimes i feel like i don't have the creativity to write anything for the day. but when did i let this blog become another entity exerting pressure and adding demanding expectations to my life? enough of that way of thinking, i'm tellin myself that right now. i refuse to let this blog consist only of writings i'm proud of or things i think are interesting enough, funny enough, unique enough to post in hopes that all of you might think i'm a brilliant, artistically-minded, creative genius. some of these blurbs will be pretty darn interesting, obviously, pretty darn hilarious, and pretty darn cooky. (insert sarcastic, raised eyebrow here). however. a lot of what gets put into words from my mind might be awfully boring, run-of-the-mill, weird, or (gasp) wrong.

the truth is, these entries are expressions of what's on my mind and in my heart in their respective moments. that is why they are sometimes silly, or sometimes profound in their own right. isn't that exactly what the thoughts of us humans really are? sometimes silly, sometimes profound. so, random as they may be, i hope to keep them coming more abundantly, with less time in between. and i hope to make more entries because i want to, and not not write because i'm apprehensive about how i will be perceived. and i will do so in hopes of gathering many more footprints to mark the path beside my own on this organic, gritty, yet beautiful excursion that is my journey.
