A Post About Nothing

I sat in front of my laptop for the past hour in contemplation of what in the world to write about.  I have written and rewritten three separate drafts, all with different topics, and somehow I'm still not satisfied with any of them.  They're all perfectly fine posts, I guess, but each of them has nothing to do with what's really on my heart or mind at this moment.  I think the problem is it's just been too long since I've written anything.

You know, it's kinda like that moment when you run into a close friend who you haven't seen in years.  There's so much to say, but you don't even know where to start so in the end somehow you talk about none of the really important things.  That's kinda how those past three drafts have felt like to me.

So instead I chose to write about nothing!  This post has no content other than to say that too much has happened for me to put it all into one post.  So instead, share your patience with me as I post this as an ice-breaker-post for hopefully better writings in the future.

Until then, I'm going wayyy back into the photo archive of this blog to when I was 15 and enjoying a long summer's day of butterfly catching.  This was back when I was still using a point and shoot camera and the 10 second self-timer to take self portraits.

Happy Friday!

    You crossed my mind the other day Esther, I do hope all is well with you. I was reading a post about taking better photographs and thought, they should see Esther from the stickses (sic) blog!! Know that there are good thoughts coming to you from Australia Esther.

    I, too, have been wondering how you are, where you're heading in your design process, and when we would be graced with more of your stunning photos. My own blog has been ignored for 3-1/2 years since I can never seem to convince myself that what I've just written is worthy of that first long-overdue post. Perhaps I'll just follow your example and just break the ice.

    Here's looking forward to your next post - and hoping that all is well in your world, in spite of whatever life has tossed your way.

    So happy you will be posting again! I have missed seeing you on my feed so much - here's to writing about "nothing" and to future posts about nothing and everything <3

    Wish I had been that creative with my point-and-shoot at 15 :) Beautiful photos, lovely words. I hope you continue to "write about nothing"!
