For something that I don’t particularly love, I can’t seem to stay away from writing too long.. I think it serves as a good release from a lot of the cluttered thinking that goes thru my brain on any given day… It’s one of the few activities that forces me to narrow my focus instead of trying to constantly multitask.. but every time I return to this format of writing, the first thing I think is

I’ve seen the rise and fall of blog focused sites, especially now that things have taken a definite shift towards a more video based format..a 500 word post from the heart isn’t going to get me nearly as many views/responses as it would if I summed it up in an instagram post complete with a dope caption.

I know that to an extent that it’s not really about the number of people that are reading my stuff and it’s more about just getting out content that I’m satisfied with but at the same time it does make me wonder at times if every time I do this, if I’m just talking to myself.
I’ve switched up the format for this website on several occasions and since I just can’t seem to leave well enough alone when it comes to this writing thing, it’s safe to say that this will be the last time I return from an indefinite hiatus.. I absolutely want to keep using this output to share my thoughts(on a more consistent basis 😳 ) with other people as well as allowing for some personal reflection within this space I’ve created.
So in a nutshell,
