Starting Over

Like all my attempts to do something different, I failed. I didn't write a blog post every day. In fact, I didn't make it past two posts. But that's okay. I'm not upset or disappointed in myself. I do want to try to start again though. I probably won't post every single day, but I am going to try to write as much as I can. I have a busy schedule and, when I do get a break, sometimes I just want to curl up in a blanket and watch Netflix for hours on end. When I sit down to write something, I feel like I have to write with a purpose, like an essay or a research paper. That's one reason this didn't turn out as I had planned. It's difficult for me to just sit down and write. I've never kept a journal for more than a month. As a child, I had stacks of half filled diaries. But I think its important to document life, to be able to go back and look at different points in my life and remember how I was feeling or what I was thinking. I am going to do this for me.
