LIFE EDIT: LIKE RIDING A BIKE

I do not have an editorial calendar as such for this little space of mine and I am sure you have probably guessed that already. Although I have notebooks and list books and post-it notes and scraps of papers tattooed with ideas and mini essays, I cannot seem to get into a habit of pinning those possible entries to certain dates and finding the time (and unending desire) to sit down with my laptop to hash it all out on here. And that's okay... for me... and maybe you? I write about things when I am in the mood to do so as I feel the chances of the quality of my posts being somewhat top notch are much higher but sometimes, I think that maybe I should attempt to adopt some form of discipline so that I do not have to wait for that elusive cloud of inspiration to loom over my head in order for me to write, instead I can learn to tap into it whenever I need to.

I cannot quite remember the last time I just sat in front of a computer, typed streams of consciousness with no preconceived agenda and hit publish. To be fair, most of my posts are written and edited on the day they are published. Maaaaaybe, they are written a day before or, when I am on one of my "organisational highs", a week before but never months beforehand. That right there is way too much planning for me. I'm more of an... in the moment writer I think and I kind of like it. However, when times like these roll round - where I am constantly doubting myself, questioning what good my blog brings and sitting (or standing, sometimes even walking) in awe of people whose work, intrigue, passion, hobbies (whatever we want to call it) slobbers a great big smile on my face or whisks me away to a faraway land where many things are possible or makes me cry or cause me to think deeply and/ or inspires me to cultivate a way of life where I am making a positive impact in the patches of the world I find myself, which sometimes leaves me feeling inept - I find it difficult to come back to this wonderful space of mine to share little nuggets of myself. But today, I put my foot down, opened up Blogger and here we are. And I must say, it is kind of like riding a bike...

I realise that sometimes I place unnecessary pressure on my poor html baby and for that I am sorry WML. Me loves you lots and lots and will only shower you with love and honesty in the best way I know how. Was that weird? Me talking to my blog which is really fragments of me translated into a bunch of html code, is weird... right? Ah who cares!? All I know is I will populate this space of mine how I want, with whatever I want and whenever I want even if it does not make any sense to anyone but me. My writing and interests and blog and I will continue to grow and mutate and you are all more than welcome to drop by to see how we're all doing any time. And if any of you have a blog, I would love it if you sent me your links for me to check out as I do rather enjoy reading blogs. Which reminds me, I have to go make a dent in my Bloglovin' list of unread posts as I have been a rather busy bee these past few weeks. Maybe that's it. Maybe I should book some time off work to allow myself to catch-up with life... Anyway, I hope you are having a great day today.
