The Love of Text
Sojourns
I’ve forgotten how to write.
I’ve forgotten how to write long paragraphs; filled with metaphors, dripping with sarcasm, overflowing with thought and precision.
It’s social media. It’s the modern age. It’s the mobile phone.
But in all honesty, it’s one of the seven original sins; sloth.
Actually, throw in gluttony as well.
I’ve gotten fat on twitter-length diatribes, sound bites and vapid inane meaningless musings on social media.
So this blog will hopefully act as a counter-balance to all of that. It is my fervent hope, wish and desire that getting back into the daily practice and habit of writing and penning down whatever thoughts occupy my mind does serve to exorcise this foggy mind that’s plagued me the last decade or so.
I doubt that an audience will ever develop for these simple musings that emanate mostly without sense, rhyme or reason.
I think I will get better in time as I shake out these cobwebs.
I love Text.
Does she love me back?
