I'm going to skip the whole spiel about apologizing for being MIA in the writing department. Frankly, I don't see the point. Let's just dive into 2024, considering we're already cruising through February like it's nobody's business.
Now, about this weather situation. Can we even call it winter anymore with the crazy temperature swings and the perpetual cloud cover? It's like the sun's taken an extended vacation, and we're all left wondering when it's going to clock back in.
I've decided to hold off on my New Year's resolutions until spring kicks in. Yeah, I've seen those viral videos floating around about starting fresh with the blooming flowers and whatnot, and I'm totally buying into it. Whenever I've tried to get serious about resolutions in the past, I've found myself making excuses quicker than you can say "January blues." So, why not switch things up this time around?
I'm marking March 19th, the official spring equinox, as my D-day for kicking off the resolution reboot. Until then, I'm going to use these weeks to get my ducks in a row. I've got big plans for turning my balcony into a mini botanical garden, and who knows, maybe I'll get adventurous and tackle some backyard DIY projects too.
With this delayed start, I'm feeling optimistic about actually sticking to my resolutions this year. Here's to hoping the grey season clears up soon, both literally and metaphorically.
The state of the world really made me question all the things I find important. I know it is something that I have mentioned before, but sometimes I am really overwhelmed by the things that I see daily. I hate war and there is no easy way to say that I am disgusted at the lack of humanity I see. I wanted to start writing back up because I felt like all of my thoughts being stuck inside my head was making me feel like I was going to explode soon. Writing is something that has always helped me think through the mess of emotions I could be feeling at any given time.
I don’t know if I want to share my goals on the internet. Weird. Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of this entire blog? I will obviously share some things I plan on doing, but the more personal things I feel like I won’t share until it’s something I have already accomplished. I don’t want any of your bad energy being sent my way. I am just trying to continue on the path of getting myself on a healthier, more balanced schedule so that even doing the smallest things makes me feel like I have accomplished something. My biggest battle is fighting myself in all the negative thoughts I have surrounding why I can’t or shouldn’t do something. A lot of my issue is that I truly just don’t see the point. Life has been such an uphill battle, that most of the time I feel like I don’t have enough time to enjoy when good things happen because something bad is bound to kill the vibe.
For now, my main goal is to just post something once per week. I want to set my goal off small so that I’m not setting myself up for failure. Right now I have all the time in the world to sit down and write but I have no idea what my schedule is going to look like over the next couple of weeks, so I’d like to be realistic.
