I haven’t gotten in front of the computer much over the last few days. Just had a lot on my mind I guess… and stuff I really didn’t want to write about, really, though maybe I should have for my own sake. Then I noticed that it had been 5 days since I blogged. And THEN I realized that with school returning to session I need to get more disciplined if I am going to continue blogging. The first week is never too intense, but week two is, and if I don’t separate some time to jot down my thoughts, they will never see the light of day… or in this case the light from the computer screen. So today I resolve to write at least once every two days… even if what I write is gibberish, or just two lines. Maybe I should return to writing some of my Short, Short, Short, Short Stories which I have abandoned writing over the last couple of years. I need to let the Short Story Muse inspire me so that I could return to doing that. Or maybe I should shoot a couple of slahoems (Slaho’s poems, for those not knowing the lingo) out. Or maybe I should continue working on my book on Young Adult ministry, the one I started writing over two years ago, but just haven’t transferred to the computer.
I don’t know where my mind will wander, but I definitely have to write! It keeps my mind focused and it helps me to organize my otherwise random thought process. And it forces me to come up with questions and answers while I am running, which I am going to be doing a lot more of as my training intensifies for my upcoming ventures. So the challenge is on! School is back in session… AND SO AM I!!
Here’s to WRITING!!
