Initially, all I heard about blogs was, it was a good way to earn money. That made it sound interesting but it wasn’t enough of a motivating factor. I mean who doesn’t want to earn a little extra cash. However upon hearing this for years, never was I moved to start one. Suddenly a friend of mine just casually mentions one day. Saying, “people write just as a way of relaxing” that struck me.
During my school life, studying English had never been a relaxing thing to do but then that’s always because the work we produce in English is marked and cross-examined. And so that got me thinking I have never really had the chance to enjoy writing, always having to focus on making it perfect (I assure I never once got it perfect). Knowing myself, I know that I’m often putting pressure on myself and feeling stressed but with the occurrence of this blog, every post excites me. It brings joy to me as well as relaxes me. It’s a thing that I most definitely recommend to others.
