500 WORDS, DAY 134: We Have to Keep Moving

Wow. I can’t believe I’ve posted on here for one hundred and thirty-four days straight. I’m not sure what my last record was, but I’m pretty sure this is the longest I’ve gone with this goal. I’m almost half a year in, and in a way, it actually seems to be getting easier, as if … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 134: We Have to Keep Moving

500 WORDS, DAY 100: I Appreciate You Reading!

Today is my hundredth day in a row of writing and posting at least five hundred words on this blog. It’s cool to see that my thoughts resonate with some people, even if it’s just a few people here and there.

500 WORDS, DAY 88: Literary Detour

So, today is day 88 of this writing challenge I’ve set for myself, which consists of posting 500 daily words on here. It’s cool that I’m very close to a hundred days, but I do have to admit that not everything has necessarily gone according to plan.

500 WORDS, DAY 2: As long as you wonder, you are a philosopher

Yesterday I mentioned that I don’t know what my reason for writing is, yet I sit and start letting my brain go free and all this philosophical rigmarole starts pouring out. Cool, so what do I do with it? Where should I take it, in what direction exactly? Where was I going with all this anyway? Oh, right, I was explaining that I don't want a career in this, that this is a very deep and personal journey for me, this philosophical and spiritual thing, and that I don't intend to ever leave it behind, even if I never make a dime from it, because it reminds me that I'm truly alive.
