When I started my blogging break at the end of July, I really thought it would be a baby step towards hanging up my blogging heels. I had started to struggle with what to write and the self-imposed pressure to post was adding to my already chaotic off-line life. Something had to give, and giving up blogging seemed like a good start.
Being away from blogging gave me a little clarity on what was happening with my post writing (or not happening) - they say "sometimes one can't see the trees for the forest" - and this was the case here. Blogging wasn't adding to the chaos of my off-line life, my choice to not write about the challenges I was facing was holding me back from actually writing posts.
When I started blogging in 2010 it was to share my journey of healing post accident in hopes of inspiring and helping others facing a similar situation to keep moving forward and not give up. My journey and challenges may look/be different now ... but I can't be the only who is facing these "new" life challenges, so back to blogging basics of sharing my journey as I keep moving forward.
Something important that I also realized is that I can write and post when I am able too, there is no deadline other than the one I create for myself. So I may not post as often (and at times more regular) - and that's OK. I hope you will keep reading along as I get back on my heels ... the journey may be wobbly at times as I learn to stand confident, tall, independent, and achieve my balance, but one things for sure it's going to be a brilliant adventure!
I'm looking forward to returning to blogging and sharing with my long time readers and new readers of HHL about healthy living, fashion, beauty, travel and everything that helps me keep moving forward and living a luxuriously balanced life.
