Writing again for the sake of writing... Again.
I re-read some of my old writing. In a sense, I wish I could make it all go away and start fresh never remembering the things from my past that I would just as soon forget.
But you know what?
That's not fair to myself or to anyone who cares enough to read my past posts... There's something nostalgic about the past. There's something tenderizing about the future. I'll never understand how people can find a lack of comfort in redundancy. It's very endearing to me. It's been over two years since I posted a blog on here. It's been two years since I felt like sharing my life with those people I know through this mediocre website. What do I have to say now? Not a lot but I have something to say.
I always think of things and can't help but wonder if I should place them in writing for time to never erase. My ideals and philosophies are silly to me right now, but what if someone 10,000 years down the road is digging through the archives of this ancient device that imploded and collapsed on itself and they stumble across my writing? What if my ideals and philosophies help unite the world? I'm being over-dramatic yes... but in short I think I'm saying that not only is it important to document thoughts... It's essential. Writing is one of the things that separate us from most animals. I personally don't care if anyone reads this... If you do.. I thank you. If not.. That's fine too. I'm not worried about using choice words and all of the proper grammar right now because this is just a way to express myself. I'm not yearning for an A+
I do intend to write more frequently... Perhaps not on the scale that I used to write but I intend to write just enough to prevent myself from suffering from writer's block... Whatever the hell that is.
So here it is... A new start... or perhaps just an updated version of the nonsense and blah-filled: "woe is me" garbage I used to write. Here's to the future and the stories that I have to tell... If you're interested in reading.. I will thank you in advance and hope to entertain you as I entertain myself with these blogs. -gl
