New Beginnings

Well, it's been about 11 months since the last time that I posted anything. I had almost completely forgotten about this blog until yesterday read a post from a friend of mine's blog that brought me back and showed me again the reason that I created this blog in the first place. She reminded me of the potential my blog could become. Now I don't truly expect my little blog to ever reach her level. She is probably the best writer I have ever had the pleasure of knowing personally, but, when I read one of her recent posts, there was this incredible feeling of being forced to think about something completely contrary to my normal ideas while still making me enjoy questioning them. The ability to instill that feeling on others resides only with truly gifted writers, and I don't know that I'll ever quite get there. However, I do know that I can try. I already have some ideas for my next blog posts. It's been almost a year since I've been on here; I better have something new to talk about!! I know that I'll enjoy the catharsis of writing random posts and emptying my ever filling brain; I just hope that whomever ends up stumbling upon this tiny corner of the internet enjoys my Spare Thoughts and ramblings even a fraction as much as I do when I read her blog. And maybe some day I can be the inspiration for someone else to create a blog and share their random musings in the same way my friend has been for me. So here's to a new beginnings in a year which holds so many exciting and scary possibilities in my life. I look forward to experiencing each and every one of them.


P.S. Here's the link to my friend's blog if you'd like to check it out. She really is an incredible writer. http://www.emilylaurenalleman.com/
