Why now?

I have been mulling this over for the last few days. Is this something I want to get back to? It's not something I did in earnest even when I did do it a few years ago. 

I'm not a writer. I have never tried to be one. I've been told that I have a flair for writing, but I don't think that's true. I must however admit that regardless of how good or bad I may be at it, I do enjoy it. It is indeed gratifying to be able to see a product of your imagination, or whatever the hell it is, out there for all the world to see. Whether or not someone sees it, or even likes it, is a different story altogether.

Why now? At a time when the most of the world is shrinking its thoughts to fit into 160 characters, what is the point in going back to an outdated medium of expression?

The only way I can explain this is that by doing this I am hoping to bring about some changes in another aspect of my life, issues that I do not wish to delve into at this time. If I succeed, nothing like it. But if I don't, I would have spent my time doing something I (used to?) like. 

I would have loved to have a journal full of my thoughts to glance through, to know the person I used to be. But not having one, ain't that bad. I still have my old blog and I am not that old.. I can still make memories.
