What do i feel like writing about and why?

Now that I have made the decision, rightly or wrongly to do a blog (tried to do one a couple of months ago and the first one was all I did!), I feel I should in fact write some more than the first entry - I will not let it be like my attempts at diary writing when I give up after the 1st week....

So many ideas, thoughts are jumbled up in my brain that I am going to need some time to put them in some semblance of order! I first thought that I would try and explain why I enjoy writing, but then thought no-one would want to read about that, so I thought that it might be better to group them in some "themes" again that sounds a bit grand, but there again, it might indeed work - so many things that happen in life, repeat themselves throughout the years, so it might be better to try and put some thought into why things do happen again and again?

So, having decided that I should try and be a bit ordered in my approach, what do I put pen to paper about first? State of the World generally, Politics (from someone who worked for the Labour Party for many years), Loneliness, Depression ( this affects so many people that it should not be swept under the carpet - and it is great that such well-known people such as Stephen Fry and Alistair Campbell are not afraid to discuss how it has affected them! Work - how hard it is to get the "work/life" balance right - at whatever age you may be! or Family and Relationships?

As the latter seems to be on my mind quite a lot at the moment and seems to be affecting my mood, view on life etc, I think I may write about that - I think what I am feeling or thinking is like so many other people, I hope some other people might read it and think - yes that is what is going on in my life - I am not alone!

So, that is what I am going to write about next - I hope it will be interesting - am finding it a great exercise just writing this!

More the next time!

  1. I'm a relative newbie blogger too. Good luck with it. You've started well. One warning though - its a commitment. You need to post at least twice a week to keep the readers happy.
