My Mental Blog

After years of trying, crying (not literally) and sighing about this intangible and inexplicable mental block I insisted that I had about blogging, (I called it my Mental Blog), I believe that I have finally arrived.

I recall the numerous hours I spent staring blankly at the blank page on my word document only to move unceremoniously on to other, not necessarily better things. I asked normal people, web designers and technologically friendly people in my family about how to blog. I tried to explain and seek answers to my mental block (blog), but what I got for as answers were, “huh? It is so simple”, “what exactly are you looking for?”, or “where are you stuck exactly?”. More questions to my already question-riddled mind and for all that I had nothing to say.

No one seemed to understand that while I could write copiously otherwise and on any topic under the sun, things were different when it came to the word blogging. I watched jealously as people known and unknown posted blog after blog with apparent ease and flair and I couldn’t go beyond a mind freeze. I couldn’t understand this either.

It’s not that I haven’t blogged at all. I have, on quite a few blogging sites, but it just didn’t seem to have the visual appeal that other posts had. I am not sure if I have made myself understood or if I finally understand what the block was about, but it doesn’t matter anymore. At least I think it doesn’t.

Goodbye mental blog.
