Yesterday I read a post by Bobby Carroll which addressed the issue of abandoned blogs. Thousands of well-intentioned blogs just go belly up and die every day. We wonder where these people go, our fellow professionals, artists, neighbors, friends that we have come to know and admire through their writing.
As was mentioned in Carroll's post, there are many reasons why we abandon our blogs. Too busy, blogger burnout, loss of interest, etc.
Take me, for example. I've been pretty much MIA for the last few weeks now. Why, you ask?
It's for the same reason that I haven't been going to the office much lately. After having several setbacks recently, basically, I'm Burnt Out. Fried. Tired Of It All. And when I get in this mood, it's quite difficult for me to muster the motivation and creative juices necessary for writing. Nor can I even come up with anything to write about. I haven't even been leaving comments on others' blogs, for fear that I'll be Miss Killjoy. I don't want to contaminate others with my crabby mood.
Day by day I make every attempt to have a positive outlook on my life, my future, my work. When someone asks me how I am and all I can manage to do is grumble, "Things could be better", well, then, it's time for me to put myself in isolation for a while.
Thankfully, though, I feel like I might be coming out of my doldrums...not at this very moment, but soon. The weather's improving, the flowers are blooming and our Farmer's Market has begun, a signal of fun summer days to come.
Perhaps I just needed this time "away" to rejuvenate, recharge, refocus and gather my strength for the rest of the year. I've stepped back and taken stock of how I do my business, what I've been doing that's not working, and new methods that I need to implement. To make a long story short, I am streamlining my businesses, and it takes time to do that. I'm excited about the changes I'm making, both in my Real Estate business and my tea business, and am looking forward to implementation.
So no toe tags are needed yet, because my blog is not dead...it's just temporarily dormant. It'll be back, like it or not!
