I have been blogging since 2005. That’s almost 20 years! Though not very consistent.
What started with a triathlon blog turned into a Christian blog. And I stopped blogging in 2011 after I came to Singapore.
These days, I’ve shared most of my thoughts on social media (Facebook, Instagram and TikTok). But one thing I don’t like about those platforms is that:
- It is limiting in nature. You can go deep into a topic.
- Tendency to worry about what others think – every time I post, I will check if anyone likes it or comments. This obsession is not healthy. At the same time, I feel like I am performing instead of being myself.
So, we get back to this blog. Right now, the blog design, layout and structure are a mess. Sorry if you are reading this. But I am working on cleaning the site up.
I also want to blog more because this is my space on the Internet where I can share how I feel without worrying what others will say. Haha, I know others will still read it. But internally, I am less conscious.
Blogging more will be my goal for 2024. I won’t come to a point where I don’t care whether people see it or not as long as I am true to myself and it honours God.
