He said something along the lines of "if you like something so much, why mirror it?" and that really struck a chord with me.
As I plan and write posts, I always, somewhere inside me, have an awareness of what's already out there. I strive to fit in with the bloggers because I know that's what's already accepted. I've had several ideas that I've immediately dismissed because I haven't seen it elsewhere but why? If I want to make an impression I can't be churning out the same old thing as every other blogger out there. I have to do what I want, without a fear of not fitting in.
Of course I'll still do the odd post which has been inspired or triggered by something but I should be less concerned about everything having a purpose. I should be able to inspire myself sometimes.
If I want to one day to share any weird or wonderful thought I've had I should. I shouldn't think "this isn't long enough to be its own post" because WHY NOT?! Who set this unspeakable rule in me that made me thought I need hundreds and hundreds of words.
I'm sorry if this is a bit disjointed or all over the place it's 11pm and I'm already in bed; I had to get this down before I slept and forgot it all.
As I turn this new page, don't forget to follow me on bloglovin so you know when these new pointless posts come about. Follow me on twitter for my multiple plugs and on instagram because why the hell not?!
