On Blogging Again

I haven't blogged in such a long time. I haven't written anything at all in forever. For a while it bothered me, because it had been such an easy thing for me to do, to just write. And I wrote anything. Then it stopped. I found myself completely unable to even write a simple blog post.

I write in my head. I would ride the train and write TERRIBLE poetry in my head. I have a dozen ideas for short stories floating around, bits and pieces of them I can't get to mesh together. But they're there. And the bad poetry! The simple act of typing or writing something was just this great big impossible thing.

And that went on for years. Really. Years.

Whatever caused it is done now, and I am ready to say things again. Even if they aren't important in the grand scheme of things, even if no one cares or reads what I have to say,or they do and they never want to listen to me again, I have things to say and I have to say them.

It won't always be important things, or pleasant things, but they will be things I think and maybe don't want to say. Here, I will be real and honest and not feel like I have to put a positive spin on things, or keep quiet for the sake of peace. I will not be worried about being embarrassed or feeling weird.....

I always wanted to blog and be able to share it with my friends. I wanted to write about what ever I wanted and be able to feel comfortable. But that's just not me. I like the freedom of anonymity.
