what’s the point of writing a blog?
Recently, I read about the artist Benjamin Bennett. He has a project called Sitting and Smiling, in which he records himself sitting cross-legged and smiles for hours, then uploads the videos to YouTube. Some people criticized him because he didn’t explain „why?“.
Maybe that’s the point. There shouldn’t be always a point. It may sound odd, but we can allow ourselves to do some stuff just for the sake of doing them. No plan, no goal, just doing, experimenting to see what happens.
I was thinking why can’t I apply this concept to my blogging. There is a high chance that nobody reads most of the stuff I write here. There is even a higher chance that I give up this blog after writing a few posts and nothing comes out of the time spent on writing these pots. But that’s fine. There shouldn’t always be a gain from everything we do.
My intention is not to make this blog public, nor show it to family and friends, nor upgrading to pro version to make it discoverable for search engines and other bloggers. At least not at the moment. I just want to have a small corner for writing about what takes my interest or goes in my mind. I have some ideas and inspirations about what the blog may look like, but am not fixed to those ideas. Just want to stick to writing and keeping things as simple as possible.
