Obsession is a close friend of mine. I obsess over everything. Money, work, my clothes, my weight, my choices, music, time, my relationships, food, the direction my life is moving in...
This blog is no exception.
It has been yet another month of no posts. I started July with a fresh notebook on my desk at work (that excites me, is that weird?) and the goal of writing one blog per day in July. I armed myself with a new Jodi Picoult book (Keeping Faith - phenomenal) for inspiration and even shared my goal with a few people, in an effort to try and stick to it.
18 steamy summer days have passed. And I've got nothing to show for it.
The reason is simple. It is the same reason that the 'backspace' key on my keyboard is more worn-in than all of the others. It is the same reason that I write an e-mail at work and leave the 'To' field blank until the seconds before I am ready to send. Finally, it is the same reason why I have about 24 blog posts that have been started, but sadly left out in the cold, forgotten, and labeled as 'draft'.
Time for a change. Time to stop obsessing, and just create. It is, after all, what fulfills me the most and completely absorbs me.
Please bear with me as I allow myself to make mistakes.
