I’ve been tempted to get rid of this space. So much going on with life at the moment, so many questions to ask, not sure how to deal with stuff. You know, life.

Every time my finger has hovered over the delete button something has made me stop. Do I want to lose this space? This precious real estate that is mine to own and control and direct?

It’s become a little harder now that I am back at work, less time for blogging and more implications about what I blog about. It’s hard when you want to write, but have to censor yourself so much for the risk of exposing your true self and those around you.

Of course, I never click that button, this space means too much to me. Even though there is stuff in my back catalogue that makes me cringe, and there are few opportunities now for me to regularly write, it’s still mine, and having this little bit of the universe allows me to feel connected even when real life around me is so unconnected from what I am feeling.

So I dip my toe back into the world that calms my anxieties, soothes my soul and provides me with a blank white screen of venting space. Let’s see if I can wade deeper and discover the benefits of blogging again.
