It’s so tedious, i run from it now

Quote about passion
From Facebook yesterday.

 

If we work to avoid criticism, we deny the beauty and greatness of what we set out to create when our youthful dreams ran wild and free.

 

Hello.

It’s difficult to gain busy people’s attention.

And i’m not very good at it.

Why?

Because it doesn’t light my fire.

In fact, it’s so tedious, i run from it now.

But when i first began blogging in 2008, i thought if you wrote it, people would come.

Now i realize that can’t be the goal (for starters, it’s a lie – most bloggers fail miserably, and then quit).

So what is the goal from writing everyday? The goal is to suck the marrow out of life. To live a life with no regrets. Writing somehow magically ignites that.

We’re all busy bees aren’t we?

Today’s five (differently-themed) posts have a hidden message in what would appear, to a person in a hurry, to be a boring personal account of one single day.

The people who will benefit from the hidden message will find this voice comforting, and quite possibly inspiring.

It ain’t for everyone.

In fact, i’m certain that only dreamers, misfits, rebels, and the more recently coined “outliers” will find refuge and hope here.

If you’ve made it this far, smile and pat yourself on your back.

Never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.

Now go, your day is waiting for you.

Organized to never miss a day of blogging

Organized to never miss a day of blogging. Tried to do it before sunrise. Tried a second time mid-morning. Both times failed.

Finally got the first two written in the most unpredictable place, Exclamation Point. This was the highest point in our hike and we took an extended break to rest and especially to enjoy the view (and shade).

Finished the final three (this one being the last of five total) at the Concord Regional Airport waiting room.

Whatever it takes.

In blogging.

In balance.

In slaying excuses.

The thing about being organized to write five daily, differently-themed blog posts for 2,238 consecutive days is that it’s easy to start riffing and go on and on about something. When that happens, balance out the other posts that day with some…

In two days does the world change? In two days, it’ll be Friday, April 10 and these two fairly remarkable milestones will have been accomplished:

  1. Apple begins taking orders for their Apple Watch
  2. Disney Keynote Speaker, Author, and prolific blogger jeff noel publishes his 11,000th blog post

Most of the world could care less about either one. But for you crazies, you misfits, you rebels, you wonderfully visionary few, here’s to you.

Live like you mean it.
