I must admit I’m quite disappointed with my lack of ability to blog more frequently. With much of my own attention turned to Twitter and Tumblr, I’ve misplaced my interest in writing and waxing lyrical about life. I’d like to blame my busy schedule, but we all know that’s not true.

In this attention-deficit society, writing requires sustained focus, structure as well as an attempt to have some form of cognition. My lack of posts is proof that I’ve fallen victim to the code of Instant Living, where everything must occur quickly, allowing (excessive) brevity to reign. After all, when life hands you the option to communicate within 140 characters, suddenly 140 words seem like a serious chore.

In an effort to be less sporadic, I’ve installed the WordPress App on my BB and in fact, that’s exactly how I’m blogging now. Needless to say, the Tumblr and Twitter apps were also downloaded.

I want to blog more because it helps me to reflect on issues more introspectively, and more simply, it gives me more room for expression. I’m just not sure if I’m determined enough to keep this up. Let’s hope so.
