On Blogging

Wow.... has it really been over a year that I blogged about anything other than Disney? That's a sad state of affairs, my friends.

Not that there is anything wrong with Disney blogging, in fact I tend to start up one of those before too long as well. It's just that I really am about so much more than that. Believe it or not, I have thoughts that really do revolve outside of the mouse house. Religion, family, friends, sports, entertainment, life in general....

But I digress.

So why did I stop blogging? Is it that I ran out of interesting things to say? Lord, I hope not. Maybe for a while I lost sight of how to say it. Maybe I felt disappointed by the lack of other people's comments. Maybe I was so caught up in my own personal little pity parties of life that I thought anything I had to say was unimportant.

And on the last thought, maybe it is.

But if I'm writing a blog due to a sense of self-importance, than maybe I just shouldn't write at all.

Truth is, I just like to write. I like to share. I like TO BE ME. I realize now I am making it sound self-important, but I think it's more that I'm becoming a little more self aware. I need an outlet, even if it's only for getting my thoughts out to clear my mind.

So with that in mind, I'm returning to blogging. I'm not going to hold myself to a set schedule or deadline - I'm just going to write when I feel the need to write. When I feel like something needs to be said. To comment on other people's blogs as well if I feel led to respond.

I don't plan on holding back. I plan on being me. It's a path I haven't necessarily taken before, or at least stayed on.

Should be an interesting ride...
