A Restart

I haven’t written a blog post for quite some time. Just over two years, to be precise. I call myself the “Musing Mustard,” and while I have done quite a bit of musing the past couple years, I haven’t taken the time to post here. Are blogs even relevant anymore?! Yes; I suppose they still have a definitive place in our culture, regardless of whether my blog is part of that or not. I used to write with the hopes that I would be noticed: “I could be that blog," I thought, "the blog that makes it; the blog that becomes famous!” HA! How naïve I was in that regard! Now, my incentives have evolved; now I write with the intent to simply write. I often feel that I struggle to express myself adequately through spoken word; writing, however, is a medium that allows me to open up, to give voice to the music I feel in my soul, to paint with words. So here I sit, composing my first blog post in years, writing for the sake of writing, with a mild hope that someone, somewhere, someday, might stumble across my words and feel a connection. But ultimately, I will write for me, for the opportunity to give life to thought.

The Musing Mustard has returned.
