i have risen from the dead (i think)

Dear friends of the Internet,

ever since I stopped blogging regularly, there’s been this little seed in the back of my mind, that kept growing larger and larger the longer this blog, once upon a time my safehaven, was left in a standstill.

At nights when my thoughts were running wild, I imagined what I would write about. Sometimes I started drafts that somehow never felt ripe enough to publish.

The button “publish” became more daunting with each passing day, week, month and year.

And then, recently, after a big life change and milestone – I felt myself feeling a longing I used to feel. A longing to express, to share, to be vulnerable. A longing to do what I once did with such a free flowing passion: write.

It is funny now in retrospect. Big shifts have always ignited my need to write. And here I am acting all surprised… AGAIN.

I am still not sure in what capacity I will return. But I feel the itch more than ever and know deep down that I am not ready to give up this blog. My wallet would surely thank me (domain and CMS costs) but we seldomly approach passion with any kind of logic – at least in my humble experience.

Before hitting publish now, I feel a great deal of excitement. Excitement for change, for the future, for growing and evolving with it. But I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared as well. But – if reading my old blog posts has taught me anything – when is a decision out of fear ever a good one?

I do hope you will join me.

Love,

Fiona
