I suck at blogging

Gina (the blog entitled Meet Virginia in my “blogs” column to the right) as rightly pointed out that I am obsessive kind of person. Not that I am really clean or anything that you commonly associate with one who is obsessive, but I tend to become obsessed with certain hobbies (aka addictions) for a certain time period and then drop it for months at a time. Take video games for instance. I could go on a kick for video games and play them 15 hours a week for a month or two, and then resign and not play them at all for 6 months. I am weird like that. For those of you who have been reading my blog you may realize now that I was on a blogging kick from January through march, and had a great time, but as of late I have felt little drive to get out there and do it.

I am not sure what I wrong with me, and I kind of feel that this is who I am. Is it a bad thing the way I obsess? Someone once asked me if I finish things that I start, and the answer to that is yes, I do. The problem with many of the things I take up is that the only finishing point for the activity is death. I will never finish blogging. I can go from theme to theme, but never will I have completed my blog. The same goes for video games. I may go from game to game but I have never gotten to a point where I succeeded and finished video games. It is tough but I just want to write an excuse as to why you haven’t seen me on here for a week. Truth is I am pooped. But tomorrow is another day and with it comes a new addiction for me. Maybe it will be one that calls me back to this little cyberspace that has been my passion for 4 months.

God, not sure where to go from here. You know my heart. I have had a great time with this, and look forward to doing it some more. Give me a passion to do it, and if not, for something that changes me every day. I have enjoyed this time blogging with you very much so far, and I look forward to seeing where you take it from here.

For me, Thomas, the blogging is extra. The time I spend with God is where the passion is. Just make sure that when you're not "into" blogging, your time with God is not also neglected. What I blog about is the same thing that I write in my life journal, only expanded. I've done that on purpose. So that if I ever get sick of the blogging part of it, I still am "into" the journaling. My best friend is just like you in that she has a very addictive side. She does the same thing. And she's my best friend, so I guess that makes you cool too, in some totally unrelated way.

Hmm, I must say that seems a bit unusual. I'm the kind of person where I may suddenly have the ambition to start all sorts of odd projects, and then 50% of them I never finish. At least you finish what you start.
If it means anything, I just started reading your blog and I think it's cool to get to know people, through blogging, in a less superficial way. I mean I may see you at church and chit chat, but I've never gotten to know you. So if nothing else a motivation for you might be so that others can get to know you.
Hope this was helpful, or at least interesting.

Find out how your company rates by using a little known rating system!

Is your company a Scam, Dud, Scheme, Fraud Or Good Opportunity?.

95% of the money-making opportunities on the internet have been worked to death or are not suitable to be marketed through the internet. How does your company and/or opportunity rate… I’ll leave it to you to decide if your service, product and/or money making opportunity falls in this category.

Hurry you may NOT be happy with what you will find!
