The thing is, I really meant I was done when I said I was done. But, in retrospect, perhaps I was just burned out and needed a break.
Yet I missed writing this blog.
So I'm back - however, it's "limited back." Although I missed writing this blog, and felt pulled to return to it, my time for it is scarce still. Actually, probably scarcer than before. So I'm setting low expectations for myself: I might write only a couple of times per month, and if I exceed expectations, then I can celebrate. If not, I won't beat myself up about it.
I think of my departure from and return to this blog as using a break to discover what matters. Just like white space on a page, recesses in one's life serve a valuable purpose: to provide a rest, to organize ideas, and to direct attention.
So here I am.
I don't know where you are, or if you're still with me after a long separation. But if you are, I hope to hear from you as I share my thoughts, my joys, my struggles with you in the blogosphere.
More to come...
