Reclaiming, Restarting, and Redirecting

It has been a long time since I last posted something on my blog. It was in the early 2020 that I published something deep on that, and it remained so as the latest — as well as the one and only — reflection that I shared there, up until now. I felt like I had lost the sense of writing: the creativity, the critical-reflection, the thought play, and most importantly, the power in me. As a self-claimed writer/blogger/thinker, I love to express my idea and my thought through any sort of writing platforms, as I believe it is the way of me connecting myself with the world : via the means of storytelling.

Well, I did write on different social media platforms. But I think there is some sort of differences as well as enjoyment that I got when I do it on my personal blog that is specifically for writing-purpose only . I had lost that sense for quite a lot of time. I was too lazy to sit and write, reflect, and redirect my thought into stories that I could sufficiently type and share. In my personal taste, writing is a medium in which I could safely release things that stress me out. I think a lot, and some times I overthink everything. By writing, I help myself to clean and clear things up in mind so that I would not be taken away by that. Sadly, for these past few years, I was so taken aback. It affected me personally. I lost the joy of writing — on blog. And sharing. And reflecting. I stopped posting stories on my blog.

I miss having the joy of storytelling on blog. I truly do, hence I need to reclaim the joy and the power back to myself. And as I embark on a new journey, this is a momentum for me to restart everything: creating a new platform, fall in love with the process and redirect myself towards the joy I used to have when I write and share on my (previous) blog. So, here I come with a new medium of writing that apparently is called Medium.

I am so looking forward to having the joy of writing, again.
