Wow okay, it’s been 2 months since my last blog. So much for having any form of consistency.
Immediate edit: only been a month, i didnt think i was this bad at math
I actually wrote a fair amount of blog post after from that Lorem Ipsum one. Each one lengthy enough. However, theres this… *feeling* that wants me to erase everything and start from scratch. I mean, that’d be absurd! Why do I feel like erasing entire paragraphs?
Turns out I had forgotten what writing your thoughts out actually looks like. It’s not perfectly encapsulating every thought and emotion you had within one fell stroke of the keyboard. It’s a couple of hours of re-editing and deleting whole paragraphs. Maybe for days.
It only took me a couple of hours after publishing my first post to feel immediate embarrassment at how ramble-y and disorganized I sound in text @-@“ even after multiple rewrites.
But that’s just how things are. Editing your own text is showing that you’re rethinking your thoughts and reshaping it to be more comprehensive and coherent. However, it can be infuriating when you’re still not fully satisfied with your text. And sometimes, it just feels easier to delete everything than to try molding your old paragraphs to make sense.
I’m not gonna delete those other blog drafts, I wrote too much. And it’s okay enough for me to continue.
