It’s been 50 days since my last blog…
Where have I been?
To be honest, I took a break. It’s been one year since I “relaunched” this blog. And I have been questioning myself, questioning why I am writing it? Am I doing it for the right reasons? Am I doing what I originally intended to do? Do I care what people read, or how many people are reading it?
I had breakfast with a good friend and he helped me see what I was already feeling. I need to get my focus back on what I am writing, not who’s reading it or how many people are clicking the link. (Analytics can be a bad, bad thing.)
Also my last blog was Parkland, and I guess that also stopped me in my tracks. It made me think, gave me pause. A little bit of “what good are you doing?” in a world where this is happening on a regular basis.
So I have come to this conclusion, I need to keep writing. Keep saying what my heart, my head and what “The Spirit” wants me to say.
I need to keep talking about great music & movies, talk about current events, and have fun with it. And of course I will occasionally wade into difficult topics that tear at my heart. I think that’s just me being honest.
But when I hit that send button and post it on my socials, I need to be done with it. I am no longer responsible for what happens next, I need to leave that up to you the reader. If it’s 100 of you, great! If it’s 10 of you, great! If it’s only one of you, great!
Thank you for reading, and always thanks for the time you spend with this blog!
I too am learning analytics can be a huge trap. Glad you are getting back to “why”. I have to do that often. Have a great week. And welcome back.
