Journal One
As we approach the end of 2011, I find myself wanting to crank up the journal. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to do this, but I’m always held back by - well - inertia (laziness?). Even when I’ve acquired the motivation, I start the text editor and then stop because whatever topic I have on my mind is not worthy of a FIRST post. This time, I decided that whatever I write will be posted, no matter how empty, silly, or amateurish it reads. So there. My first subject is my previous lack of worthy subjects. I suppose that’s as worthy as an other; nothing world-changing here, but why waste my revolutionary thoughts on a post which I know will not be read.
If you’ve also been considering writing, but have been held back by similar restraints, you can use my example to get you started. I’m sure you’re thinking, “I can do better than that!”
Now I’ve done it. I’ve written my first entry. Now I just need to post it and I’ll be able to justify adding much simpler ones about insignificant subjects.
