Blog Failures
I'm having trouble deciding the purpose of my blog.
It can be a chronicle of what I'm up to, but I don't want to be droll.
It can be anecdotal vignettes for your amusement, but I feel too pressured to be witty.
Finally, it can be an electronic diary, but I feel too embarrassed or ashamed to share my most deeply felt emotions and struggles.
So this is a crossroad I am at. I have written off the first option. I crave the third option right now, but can't bring myself to wear my heart on my sleeve. The second option will be elusive until I get over the latest emotional struggle and can muster the strength for wit.
