Seeing that my last personal blog post was in September of 2010 almost makes me want to stop trying to maintain this page. Nonetheless, I haven't given up. You see a lot of people's posts that start like this: "I've found a new energy to start writing in my blog again" or "This attempt will turn the activity of blogging into a habit." While these aren't bad, I think I'm writing this blog to motivate myself to be intentional about my time and the things I do with it.
Over the past few weeks, I've been feeling a strong sense of burden and anxiety over my seemingly endless list of things I have to do and things I want to do. With graduation looming over my head and it's close yet far distance teasing me, I'm making it a point to use my time more wisely. And with Homegrown positively more and more of my time, I'm finding it more difficult to focus on things that I "enjoy" doing. But I'm coming to the realization that I can and do enjoy everything I do. Although, I should be creating space for the growing list of books I want to read and for the people in my life, regardless of the sector I know them from.
So, I'm making it a point to produce a more exhaustive account (my blog) of the things I'm doing with my life, with the goal being that it will allow me to reflect on how effective I've been in the times between my posts. Effective meaning, have I been spreading my energy wisely and widely, across the many great things life has to offer.
