Melancholy thoughts about blogs


Why don't I blog anymore?  Has the day for blogs come and gone, or am I just too lazy?

Recently Dennis has been working on a blog book for me.  He is compiling all my entries for my first three years of blogging into a book.  It is fascinating.  I was a pretty dedicated blogger at that point so it really tells the tale of those three years.  When things started getting more "exciting" in my life I found that I no longer had the time or energy to keep up the blog.

So, why am I blogging right now?  Well, because my work load has significantly decreased.  After I experienced a small stroke at the end of February the people in charge of our language school here did a quick assessment of my level of Tagalog and determined that I had already reached my necessary proficiency level.  This allowed me to discontinue going to classes and reduced my overall stress level significantly.

Hence, the time to blog.  Will this increase the chances of me blogging again quite soon?  We shall have to wait and see.

Blogging can be therapy as we find people with similar situations and like mindedness. A safe place to fall outside the normal human interactions of day to day. But like all interactions time must be taken and so priorities must be made :)
I too find it hard at times to find the time to write.
I try to make myself do it though as I am finding it interesting to look back and see how far I have grown.
