Blogging to heal

I blog in between my daily chores. I cook, do the laundry, go to the wet market/grocery, run errands like pay utility bills. I also attend to the business permit and tax/revenue needs of my small business (which is on a annual basis only). I keep the house clean as well as dispose the garbage 3x a week. Gasp! and Sigh! My 'creative' moments I leisurely spend blogging. It helps me keep my down days up. Sometimes, I cry, though often I smile or laugh depending on the humor I stumble upon .

Did I mention blogging gave me emotional relief?

If only during the time I AM blogging. I remember back when I was new at blogging I had a hard time doing my posts. First, I didn't know how to get around blogger - it's first version. At my age, I thought I was being stupid. This is for young people who mostly use the medium to hyperventilate. I was too old for this. Again, I thought. But today, I have several blogs, essentially about things I had just wanted to offload my chest. Things that may seem unimportant or trivial to others. But hey, why would I allow that to bother me? My blog is my own little private space. Passers by are just that -- passing through. If they find my writing so-so then what can I do? Blogging is my way of fighting my hypertension. I am usually lost out there when I blog. And I feel good about it. Specifically, my blogs were about my angsts, my fears, my dreams and my hopes which I couldn't have verbally expressed because people I love might get hurt. Ideas that could prove silly at the least.
