New Beginnings
I’ve had a very nice blogging break. I’m hoping that now I’ll be able to be more consistent for a while.
 
Actually, I don’t feel too guilty about my long silence. I’ve noticed that a lot of people seem to be taking a rest from blogging. Perhaps it’s the winter doldrums. After a few months cooped up in the house, a lot of things seem to become stale. Air and motivation being two of them.
 
I love fresh starts. There’s nothing I relish more than staring at the first page of a blank notebook. When I’ve unwisely spent my day doing nothing (which is most of the time, in the interest of honesty), it’s infinitely satisfying to think that the next day is a whole new opportunity to do things differently.
 
The fact that I love starting over is a testament to the fact that I mess up a lot. But that is what I love about spring. It’s like a fresh, new beginning.

Yay! I'm so glad you're back. Yep, lots of people have been taking a break, I really hadn't put two and two together. Including myself. If I'm feeling lazy in general anyways, the last thing I want to do is be creative and come up with a new post. Sounds bad, but I'm guilty. :)

Hey, you're back! How exciting!

Yes, I do believe it's good if it turned your stomach ;-). The whole story is supposed to have that...morbidness...to it, so I'm quite pleased that you experienced the proper emotions! Thank you so much for reading it. And you do indeed know about writing--you do it quite well!

Hope to be seeing you around more often, now that you have had your new beginning :-D!
