It’s been close to exactly two years since I’ve written.

See, life should be simple for me, but it’s not. Not gonna go into the hows and whys, but just leave it out there that there’s some complexity in life. Your’s too? Yup, it’s the human condition. And we all decide what we’re gonna do next based on unique individual situations.

This comes down to many months of not therapeutic writing, because that’s what this really has been for me. Not me being the wise man bearing wisdom, but me being the guy who’s trying to understand what he doesn’t already know, and by that understand himself a little better. And exert some rational control into the mix.

Hope you got through that paragraph OK, should be downhill from here.

The upshot is that over the months I still had ideas for what I wanted to write. And when I did, I put them on my to-do list. That is to say, I created a 99% empty post that I intended to write later. You know, when things got simple.

Anyway, I was talking with a friend tonight and showed him the site. I thought I’d written more. I thought I’d written more recently.  I had not.

So anyway, now I’m going to try to.  No schedule, no deadlines, just intent.

That’ll have to do. It’s on my “to-do” list.
