The end of the road

After much pondering and soul-searching I have decided to stop blogging.
I initially started blogging as part of my Oak and Mistletoe outer court working in order to hold myself accountable for writing down weather observations and the like. And while I have enjoyed blogging I’ve ended up doing it more because I feel I should than because I truly want to. I constantly feel guilty when I haven’t blogged in a few days and it makes me reluctant to blog at all. Additionally after having started art journaling all I feel like doing with my evenings is create art. Aside from having a full-time job I also have my studies with Oak and Mistletoe and I was accepted to Christopher Penczack’s apprenticeship (yay!) and so time is becoming even more scarce. This has led me to realize that I need to prioritize what I want to do and so I’m choosing the things that nurture my soul the most. Blogging just doesn’t come high enough up on the list.
On the day when I live off my art, have quit my day-job and spend my days at home creating beautiful things and nurturing my soul, then I will take up blogging again. For now I am taking a hiatus to live my life off-line. Time is too short to feel that one is wasting time in front of a computer screen (I am*not* saying blogging is a waste of time, I am saying that I feel I am wasting my time maintaining a blog of my own when it gives me so little satisfaction).
