Blogging Blogginess

October 23rd, 2009

I miss blogging. I get way too hung up on the idea of being witty and funny and perfect and then I don’t write anything. Lately the energy and creativity has escaped me but there have so many moments that I’ve wanted to write about. I need to find a balance.

How do I do this? How do I write my most deep, very personal thoughts without offending someone? How do I write to protect my children, my husband, my workplace, myself or the Mormons? I want to write about everything. Sex, motherhood, my job, my regrets and my wishes; but something holds me back. It may be my unfortunate need to coddle the feelings of others or it could be my imperfect grip on the use of a semicolon. Who knows. So, here’s what we’re gonna do. The three people who read this blog will be okay with what I write. They will love me for who I am, as they already do. Even if I say the word fuck or have one of my famous “TMI” moments. I hope they will. Will they? Do you think?

    Speak your mind. You will only be upset with yourself if you don’t truly. It is YOUR blog. Your time and place to express. It is your outlet. You may be feeling what someone else is and being the brave one telling with world. You may find more people agree with you, and read your blog, when you do this. Once it’s on the written page it hardly ever sounds as angry or insensitive as it does in your head. Then it is out of you and you can heal. I don’t think anyone can fault you for that. Keep it comin sista. I want something INTERESTING to read! And if you want more people to read, post on your network sights when you have a new Post!

    I sometimes have that problem where I don’t feel like posting because I don’t feel like I have anything witty or interesting enough. I don’t think there’s one simple solution.
