I hate feeling obligated to post something for the sake of posting something even when I don’t have much to write about. Should I write about what I’ve been learning lately? Hmmm. It’s too late and I just got off work. Should I write about work? I don’t know what would be interesting to write about! This whole blog thing is strange. I don’t use it like a journal; I already have one. I’m not a witty writer but feel the pressure to write some impressive post to satisfy my blog friends. Ugh.
Here’s something: I really don’t like it when people judge others for the sake of making themselves appear “cool” or “intellectual”. Whether it’s an author of a book or a speaker or a fellow peer, if the words coming out of one’s mouth isn’t because of a love that is overflowing, why share? I know I fall short and probably sound like a pompous, arrogant person more than I would like to admit. I think we can all take a lesson from Jesus and think before we speak and love while speaking for that matter. Ok, I’m going to bed.

I think you’re cool no matter what you post. Could you post about that article you sent me… something about Indian men. I think you know what I am talking about!

Oh coop…
I really love you. Thanks for letting me come to your apartment and hangout with you girls. It was much needed time off of calbap’s campus.
I love you girls.
Grace and peace Coop…

I find that the best way to get over the perceived pressure to “write some impressive post” is to write some that are absolutely ridiculous and see who still loves you after the dust settles. 😉
