Break Time

In the three short months that I've been blogging, I think there have only been a few days when I haven't posted an entry. And I suppose the primary reason I started this blog was to have another outlet for which to write. I keep a journal, but blogging is different. And while I love to write, and while I have especially enjoyed this blog, I would be lying if I didn't confess that it is time consuming.

For several reasons, journaling takes much less time and thought than does blogging. I suspect it depends on what a person blogs about, and how in depth the topic is. But I have recognized that the time I am spending blogging every day during the past three months is biting into time that I could devote to other activities. Because of this, I'm going to take a break from posting any entries on this blog for awhile.

I started this because I enjoy it, and I've continued to blog because I enjoy it. And I always told myself that if it ever seemed to become a chore, then that should be a sign to take a break from it for awhile. Well, it is starting to feel like an obligation to post something daily. I know, it's probably kind of ridiculous for me to feel this way since there are probably only a handful of folks who even read this blog regularly. But I do not want to ever post an entry because I feel obligated to do so. Maybe I'm just getting extra busy. Maybe there're other things I'd rather be doing with my time. Maybe, maybe, maybe...

All I know is that I'm going to take a break from blogging for awhile. When I'll return to it, and how often I'll post an entry, is anybody's guess.
