To be honest, its not that life got busy or I negelected this blog for something else, it's that I walked away from it when I realized it was quickly becoming something other than what I had intended.
I had wanted to start a blog about being a Buddhist mom in the midwest. Then I added in my approaching fortieth year. Then I started tracking food loss. The last entry I wrote but never posted was all about photography. I found myself wondering if my topics are all over the place because i really don't have anything to say. I'm probably boring everyone who reads this and that is where I sat for a few weeks.
Recently, I remembered why I launched this blog in the first place. It was for me. In hopes of finding other fellow stumblers along the paths of Buddhism and parenthood. Well, turns out I am looking for other fellow midlifers I think. I am looking for others who are trying to find the balance and the bliss and whatever else occupies our minds at the moment.
Arising thoughts, put on line, pass like clouds. Some Buddhist humor for you.
Anyway, I am back to blogging. Mostly about the bear and the bug. Maybe about my search for the Buddha. I'm sure I will discuss food since I love it. Photography for the same reason. And a whole bunch of other clouds that cross my sky
For whatever it's worth, I enjoy reading about your journey through life - no matter how mundane it may seem to you.
ReplyDeleteI miss my blog and interacting with those who used to read it. Reading your words is a balm on that wound and allows me to reclaim some small part of my loss. But, you know, that's just me being selfish. :)
