meaning is discoverable
Inspired by Kerri's 💭 Thoughts on Deletion.
Accept your capacity and desires can change over time and self-discovery, then adapt as needed. Knowing that I can leave this space or activity on hold is freeing.
My writing here has dwindled. When I do write, I never have much of anything to say. I’ve never cared if people read what I write here, but I do care that about whether or not I’m writing something meaningful.
Believe it or not, there are people out there looking for the world's most incomprehensible gibberish. Even if you think you never have much of anything to say, that doesn't account for anyone else who thinks otherwise.
As far as instilling meaningful writing goes, ponder what is meaningful to you. Meaning in your writing, meaning in others' writing, or even meaning in hypothetical writing can all be explored in-depth.
Week Posts feel like something I have to do every week. Other posts just feel like filler, and fluff, and random bullshit that just doesn’t matter.
In publish your drafts, I note that there's no deadline for blogging. Outdated, distasteful obligations can be replaced by natural compulsion to create. Slow cooking your output could reap more rewards than publishing updates at arbitrary intervals. Post what matters to you when you want to.
I wanted this to be fun, and it was. I enjoyed it for a long time. But now it just feels like work, and that’s something I just don’t want it to be.
Finding what was fun and enjoyable about your past writing can help replace what makes writing feel like work now. Recount your travels, then return to the zone that engenders the most fun. A new writing destination may also hold your answer.
I don’t know. I don’t know what to do with this collection of meaningless, pointless words.
If words you wrote have been meaningless, read between them or write others to find the meaningful words.
