It's hard for me to believe, but it's been almost a year since my last blog post. I'm sure I stopped writing due to the holiday season or something like that. But what I found is that once I stopped, it became more and more difficult to restart. I couldn't do it. I kept telling myself that I would find a "worthy topic," whatever that meant. Then I thought I would maybe make audio or video content.

Part of the difficulty writing was due to the reception of my last post. It was my most read post by a mile. My little blog with 0 traffic suddenly had a someone reading an article. I hadn't realised how liberating it was knowing that I was mainly writing for myself. So after nearly a year, I convinced myself to write again.

To those who regularly blog, much respect. It isn't easy. It's hard work that I have far more respect for today than in the past.
