REINSTATED

I realized that my blog has remained untouched for so long not because it was forgotten, but rather because it frightens me. To be honest, the simple act of just motivating myself to do such a momentous writing task, not required by a university professor, is incredibly daunting. I am always able to find something else to do regardless of the level of importance of that 'something else'.

That being said, writing publicly while living and studying abroad is something that I would like to do for several reasons. The most significant reason is the high importance writing down my experiences and revelations holds in relation to personal reflection and future referral. I also want to be able to help at least one other person better-maneuver throughout hardships which may present themselves while living in a foreign country. Lastly, I would like to keep loved ones more in the loop of my life from thousands of miles away. 

Its about time that I stick these reasons in the foreground of my mind and reinstate my blog. This will be easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy because it's all just a matter of mindset! (TIP: fake your mentality until you make it standard).

I intend to post shorter entries than their predecessors but on a weekly basis. This is to establish blog writing as a routine aspect in my life.

Let's see!
