Learning Conciseness

I found out a few people actually read my blog and are asking for new posts. I would like to express my apologies to them for the silence in this little room of mine.

I have realized (again) that I have the tendency to narrate my experiences in so much detail. So much detail that I actually spend too much time composing and editing blog posts until I become too sleepy to finish them.

I have this tendency to think that every minute movement of a leaf deserves to be recorded in history. Every ripple has a story to tell. This is one reason why I decided to start a blog - so I could save at least some of my treasured thoughts, without physical clutter.

Each sentence in this blog, I feel, is another little treasure deposited into my online time capsule. On the other hand, I must find a way to keep the little from growing too large and end up not being posted at all.

Perhaps conciseness will help. The fewer, the more special each becomes.
