Silence

Hello Reader's
It has occurred to me that "blogging" can possibly become therapeutic for me. On a daily basis there are so many thoughts and ideas that pop into my head and after all of these years I have trained myself to quietly tuck them away without mentioning them or bringing any ideas to fruition. I am really not sure how this happened or when it actually started, but I have successfully been able to numb myself from the world around me. Some might say this could potentially result in a explosion or a nervous breakdown for that matter, but I don't really think it will. What I have noticed is that instead I have lost myself and the true essence of my character. There was a time when I got excited about the little things in life. There was a time when I was a dreamer and found inspiration in the things that I loved. Honestly, now I can't think of a single thing that I am passionate about. It is a truly depressing reality. I go about life as if it is a job, without any understanding of it's meaning or my purpose. I used to find passion in art and writing, but now I struggle to think of anything slightly interesting to write about for this blog. As I said in my last posting it is the beginning of a new year and today is certainly a new day. It is time for me to make a change, to indulge myself in new things; open myself back up to the world around me. I will start here by making this an outlet for me. I will find my creative side if it is the last thing I do. Thank you blog for dragging it out of me!
