I put a lot of pressure on myself when I started a blog. I wanted it to be a place to document my dialogues with friends, family, strangers, and within my own head. However, I put too much pressure on myself to only blog about insightful topics and new ideas that inspire me. The tragic reality is that my life is filled with monotony and very ordinary conversations and thoughts. Through these day to day reflections though, there might be a glimmer of insight, but maybe not. Writing my thoughts and posting them onto the web will benefit me more than anyone else, and so I'm going to try to discipline myself to spare some time to reflect. If not for me, then for those who want to keep up in my crazy life.
So I decided to give up internet television for Lent.
(!)
It will give me more free time to spend with people, to seek God, to reflect, and to pray. However, you don't even know how much tv I watch. It's kind of ridiculous. I've had the tv on while I do school work since I was in middle school. I'm not quite sure what to do with myself at this point... I guess we'll see!
