My blog recently has taken on a more visual look to it. I have posted more pictures and YouTube videos. Compared to other bloggers I am not a very strong writer, although I get by I think. Sometimes you run dry on things to write about so you post other media that can tell your story or to advance your point of view. Posting daily helps keep your audience engaged which is a good thing. However there is a struggle to produce content and that can discourage some from even blogging at all.
Perhaps it’s time to do more writing, WordPress is filled with great writers and maybe I could be that someday. Words are important too you know.
The struggle is real. So why not share it on your blog. Let your friends help you through the trials and tribulations of life. Hang in there good people.
No this is not a post taking us back to 2014 which was a good year but I went back to the theme Twenty Fourteen that I have used before. I liked the previous theme I used recently but I found that when people visit they might not know to click more to read the full article. I also want them to see a posts images straight away. Twenty Fourteen has 3 columns which give it some flexibility too. No matter what theme I am using I appreciate your visits to my blog. You my fellow bloggers are swell people!
Last night I had a dream my leg from below the knee was amputated. It was a strange, unexpected dream that has me bewildered. Dreams like this aren’t always about the event but something symbolic and/or subconscious. My wife assured me its probably something I am struggling with or something like that. I didn’t have a huge supper last night and I slept well so there wasn’t anything that could have upset me overnight. Perhaps I shouldn’t read too much into it. Having both legs is a good thing and makes me appreciate those who have had to have an amputation in their lives. Here’s to sweeter dreams soon.
Being yourself in your mid-forties can be an adventure. Some folks my age are having a mid-life crisis but I don’t think I am. Knowing who you are and being yourself I think can help you navigate life better. Some of us in our forties are still finding out what life is about and welcoming the changes. I think fear, like anything can drive people to do things that are not healthy or wise.
One word of advice for folks my age I have is to learn new things, do things differently every once and awhile and have fun. Get to know younger people who can help you stay current on what’s up in the here and now. Building bridges generationally can be fun. Have fun though being the age you are. Of course taking care of yourself is helpful too. Mid-life is different for everyone but I hope it comes later for you because you plan to live a long time.
