I haven't been writing on here for quite a while now. This 'quite a while' has been six years to be precise. Can you believe that? Je ne suis ecris beaucoup ( I am not writing a lot). My blogger's block seems to be neverending. It is frustrating considering the fact that I was once a full-time staff writer of a national English language daily here in Bangladesh. This block is partly responsible for my laziness to put my mind to this certain activity. What I am really active and gung-ho about is watching movies (also very trashy ones at that). Thankfully, I have come to realize that I need to completely quit TV viewing. Once and for all. There is hard evidence that TV is a perfect recipe for killing productivity.
However, giving up a habit is easier said that done. It needs strength of character and will of iron. And the reason for doing so will also have to be valid. As long as I am concerned, it's so valid that I don't even want to think it twice. All I need to do is focus on writing and reading more. And at the end of the day, this is what I do best.
What can I write about going forward? Well, I can write about my language learning adventures on Duolingo for one. What do you say? Would you be interested in that? Let me know. Or I can also write about my predicament of being confused about what to write. Maybe? But don't worry since I have returned from this long hiatus, ideas will eventually flow in sha Allaah :)
Although I must say this Covid19 lockdown has been boring and at the same time overstrung, it's been a blessing in disguise in that it has gotten me back into writing.
Let's just pray my posts are regular from now on rather than sporadic.
It was not that boring when you get unlimited time to spend with your family especially with your 6 months old daughter.
ReplyDeleteYes that part is true! Alhamdulillah :)
