another crack at it
the problem for me is simple: time. the lack of it.
there are so many things for me to focus on in my life.
- family
- church/ministry
- music/photography gigs and sessions
- creative + focus times for my own work
- social gatherings
so…. when it comes to carving out time to “blog”…. it just doesn’t makes “sense” to me. How can I justify spending time blogging when I have tons of $h!t to focus on and just get done??
I still don’t know the exact answer to that question. But here is where I am at right now.
I know that music and photography are wired in me. Sometimes I’m not able to flow in those spaces…. real life gets in the way and I need to focus on the things that it put in front of me in the moment. But without the creative elements in my life… i simply cannot exist. Its not “what I do”.. its “WHO I AM”. I’m beginning to believe that blogging can actually be a way to stay creative, to communicate in different ways.. but also create a venue for sharing my life, my work and my creative progress.
ya.. i know…. this ain’t new. but its new to me. and i’ve tried to blog for the last year or so with no success. the last time I had a consistent flow was when I was doing music as my full time career. so the question I ask myself now is… can I actually do this??
we will see.
