Only time will tell

So since the start of this year, I have been pretty bad at getting blog posts up, whether its on here or over on PerksofNeverland where I co-write with Emily. The thing is, a lot of stuff has happened so far this year and some of it I haven't dealt with very well. A lot of things that I used to love (i.e. blogging) have now become things that I have to try and force myself to do, just because I know that I should be enjoying it.

Blogging right now has become a bit of a chore and when I started this blog 4 years ago I used to have so much passion for it. I used to sit there in class and write my blog posts whenever the whim hit me. In just 4 days, it marks the 4 year anniversary of PerksofRecovery beginning (for those of you who haven't been here since the beginning, Empty Journal came to be after the blog underwent a name and branding change 2 years ago). So while I might put out a blog post to mark that day, for a while at least I will be taking a little bit of a break. I might put up posts every now and then but there will definitely be no schedule that I will be forcing myself to keep. I miss my chatty blog posts that I used to just throw together and feel so much better after writing. I'm trying to get back to that but until then...bare with me.

This blog has always been a safe space for me to put out whatever feelings I have, with the knowledge that it will be met with kindness and support, and with the hopes that it helps someone else on their journey too. For now, I need to work on my own mind and figure out just what it is that isn't quite right and deal with it.

You have all been so supportive of every endeavor I have decided upon and I hope that you stick around until then.

I love you all.
