So, as I’ve been doing every Friday for quite some time now, I dropped by Mama M’s place to check out the questions for the day. But, instead of questions, I found sad news: Five Question Friday has been put on an indefinite hiatus.
Having just retired one of my own blog themes—and not even one that’s a link-up that requires attention beyond putting my own fingers to keyboard— I can understand how she feels about reaching the “have to” stage of something. And she’s right, at those moments, it’s far better to opt out than to try to do something you really don’t want to do anymore.
So, while I admire her courage in laying to rest something that’s been very successful on her blog, now I have to worry about what it means for mine. (It’s all about me, you know!) In the space of one short week, two of my theme days have now gone by the wayside. Maybe that’s some sort of sign that it’s time for a change here, too, though I’m not sure what. As I said before, I’d like to replace those days with new and exciting themes, I just need to figure out what those new themes might be.
Of course, it won’t be the end of the world if I just have to chatter about random thoughts for a while on Fridays and Sundays, or maybe browse around the great World Wide Web and try out a few memes and themes and see if any really feel good to me. One of the most beautiful things about blogging really is the fact that I’m free to do whatever I dang well please; there’s definitely a certain liberation in that feeling that doesn’t come from too many other parts of life.
So, I’m putting my thinking cap on, but I’m jamming it tight onto my head because I’m just going to see where the wind blows me.
