Writing this one at the last second because I couldn’t let Jamie down. And the topic is quite fitting in a fun way. I started the year with the secret goal of posting on this blog daily. And I managed to do that in January only to discover that posting daily isn’t fun and was making me hate the whole experience. I stopped doing that and then life took over, work took over, all the other things took over and all the momentum I had going into 2025 slowly dwindled away. Over the past few weeks, I realized that this space I built for myself is more important than I realized for my mental sanity. Not just because it’s a useful relief valve when I have thoughts in my head but also because it helps me connect with many wonderful people out there. And this constant reminder that there are wonderful people out there is a potent antidote against all the nastiness that seems to be everywhere in the world at the moment. And I need that antidote. And so what I’m renewing in a way is my commitment to this space, to myself, and to making connections. My commitment to share what I can, and to help make tiny corners of the web more joyful and hopeful. Thank you for keeping RSS alive. You're awesome.
