We're so back .....it was so over

Can I blame this hiatus on being busy?

I swear I’ve been busy.

(written on a camping trip up north)

Yes I let life get in the way. Like a childhood toy, this was thrown in the back of the closet for a bit (rough analogy). From time to time I wanted to come back to it... and I would think about it, and then that feeling would pass as I was taken over by the next thing and the next.

But truly, I think I just got lazy. The question is, how do I change that? I was letting small problems become big ones. I never really did love the layout of the website, but we can all get past that for now. I think this platform needs to be less structured. The idea of putting out new and good content ever week honestly was a toll on my brain. I had to admit to myself between this and other projects....I was creatively spent. Which in retrospect might have been a good thing to figure out over the summer. This was never supposed to be stressful.

I need to go back to my roots of why I started this.

One of the greatest joys I’ve found in life has been through sharing. Either through music, media, or experiences; life should be shared. I actually miss having and wanting to review an album each week. I miss this small community of people who were sometimes excited about something posted here and maybe.... potentially learned something new. I need to get this demoralizing context of “that was dumb” or just negative intrusive thoughts that prohibit this joy for sharing.

At the end of the day if you didn’t care you would simply remove yourself from the situation. With that little spiel I look forward to bringing this back. I also share this to any and all that would like to add in to this little community. All you have to do is ask.

As always till next time
