Is Blogging Worthwhile? An Honest Question to Myself.

After reading old and present posts, this is my question to myself:

"Is blogging truly worthwhile?"

Really. What am I getting from it, if I'm being brutally honest? Simple answer is - nothing.

If I had created a blog for bot crawlers, then I'm gold - I've succeeded. Other than that, I might as well be whistling into a hurricane. I have to face the blunt truth of the matter:

It's dead.

Previously I said I loved blogging, writing down various thoughts, anecdotes and musings on day-to-day life. So have a million+ other blogs.

Today is a turning moment. I have two options: 

Do I continue with blogging, or do I stop, and call it a day?

I sit here, leaning towards the latter. Yes, I'm pissed. Yes, I'm frustrated - I've reached that point where I'm not sure if I can continue talking to myself through this blog.

I once had a two year hiatus, and came back in 2021. I feel like I've given it a good shot - ignoring 2024's pitiful single posting.

I think my best course of action is to sit back for the next few days and give this serious consideration, and not act on impulse - which only ever leads to regret.

I have to consider if I have anything to offer that is of genuine interest or not, and where I, and my blog, go from here.

I’m done for now. Time to wait and see.
