The Problem With Writing

Or is the problem with me?

Maybe it’s just my problem. Maybe other people have the same problem.

No, I’m being silly, I know this is a universal struggle.

What do I write about?

I have two posts sitting in my drafts currently. One from February and one from March. I read through them both, and I actually like them. They’re pretty different. February’s is definitely a product of me thinking too hard, or maybe just daydreaming, or probably both. March is my attempt at an update on my life with random happenings I chose to highlight. Both are unfinished. Why did I never come back to them? I suppose nothing is stopping me from giving them a closing paragraph or two and hitting “publish”, but it can be difficult to pick up a thought from months ago and put yourself back in that exact mindset.

I started this blog at the end of 2025, with the simple desire to write anything at all. The motivation that accompanies a fresh project stuck around for a while, and as is typical, slowly faded away.

Why exactly does that motivation and enthusiasm disappear?

What even is my true passion in life?

I think my problem is, I simply want to do everything.
