Today’s topic really applies just to this blog, though I suppose it applies elsewhere in life, too.
Whenever I sit down to write, I feel great pressure for it to be very meaningful and likely to positively affect change in major way in my life.
But it doesn’t have to!
One of the stated purposes of this blog when I first started was to simply practice writing. I’m pretty sure I had read a book that said the best way to improve your writing skills was simply to practice every single day, for at least 10 minutes or so.
So to that end: it doesn’t really matter what I write!
I do, of course, want to entertain and help my future reader (me). But who’s to say it won’t be entertaining without a major purpose?
I think that simply chronicling how I feeling and some general thoughts at that time is both beneficial and entertaining. So why not do it?
Okay, this didn’t take me 10 minute to write, but at least it’s something, which is the point. Just write!
