Write what you know. It might be hard at first. Maybe you haven’t written a blog post in a few years, even decades. Trust me, I read blogs from people half my age.

All the time I had been busying myself in the depths of a perpetual rut, looking at the wheels of life churning with it’s trademark indifference as they rolled by. I had been drowning in my own self-obsessed nature and had lost my footing in the face of things; everything I needed was there, all I had to do was take hold of it and my existence would certainly be followed by clarity and peace. It wouldn’t be hard. It wouldn’t be too hard, it would just take a little bit of effort, and a little bit of patience, and a little bit of work. It would be easy.That was the easy part. The difficult part about opening up is the fear.
