Wielding my pen

I thought a fresh new year should mean a fresh new slate. Hence, the wipe out of all my old posts from years ago.

Haven't been blogging since mid-June last year. I needed a break. Because blogging started becoming a chore. And I found I had less and less significant things to say other than just rambling on about my day or something completely and utterly insignificant. I used to love writing. By end of last year, I was struggling to find the words.

Its hard to write when you try to censor everything you write so nothing comes across as too personal. But therein lay the problem. How do you write something when your soul is not into it? Quite simply - you can't. It just becomes mundane.

But I've thought about it long and hard and I want to write again because who knows, maybe something I write may lift someone's spirit up for the day. Maybe it'll inspire someone. Maybe it'll give them insight in some areas of my life. Maybe it might just bore them to tears. *shrugs*

So here I am, back again with a renewed sense of writing. I have to admit that I won't be blogging quite as often as before as most time is taken up by studying and working. But when the mood strikes, I'll be wielding my pen again. Or in this case, my keyboard. =)
