Neglect

How could something so important fall by the wayside? How I could I neglect something that has been so wonderful to me? Are there so few hours in the day, so few days in a week that I can't dedicate just a small amount of time to it?

Of course, I'm talking about blogging.

I was relatively late to blogging but I find it so much fun. And I like to think that I actually have things to blog about. For example, due to business travel all over the US, I have accrued a handful of funny stories (along with a ton of photos) and met a bunch of really cool people. In truth, it's been both a blessing and a curse. It giveth and it taketh away. I haven't cycled or worked out in months (or blogged for that matter). I've been sharing a condo in Florida for the last couple of months as well and I haven't been able to make the space I occupy mine. It's of course, my own fault. I went off the grid and went "temporal" in my haste to chase my hopes and dreams.

Of course, I didn't know what those hopes and dreams were but I think I have a better idea now. I like the Great Unknown. Not necessarily adventure but forward progress from self-reliance. Complacency scares the hell out of me but I have to find a balance and set down some roots without becoming furniture.

The first step is to get back to the things I love. Get back to things that are rewarding. Like blogging.
