i can't decide whether this blog is a good or a bad thing. i like to think that i keep it for a bit of fun, a way to record things i'm doing, seeing and thinking about. but i do think of the stupidity of the time spent sitting in front of a white computer screen when i could be out doing more of the things i am spending time recording. i worry that there is the risk of spending time abstractly living an aesthetically beautiful life when in reality all i'm doing is sitting inside wasting time. it's a love/hate thing that i can't resolve.
don't get me wrong, i do realise that for a lot of people it really is just the best way to share their full and busy lives, and what makes a person happy can't and shouldn't be belittled. i'm certainly not criticising anyone (other than me), i just want to make sure that i personally get the balance right. i want to spend my time living and when i get the chance maybe spend half an hour uploading a few photos. that's the idea anyway.
i just need to walk more i think.
I feel exactly the same Jen. Sometimes it stops me blogging and I have to remind myself that my blog is just like a diary of things I like and something I can look back on in years to come and either feel inspired or just cringe at my stupidness. Look at it as a virtual scrap book. I for one would be very sad if you stopped blogging, unless it's because you are too busy doing fun things with me. x
