The Best Blog of My Life

This is the best blog post of my life right now, because the best blog is the one I’m writing.  Not the one I wrote before or the one I hope to write in the future or even the one I’m writing in my head, right now, that’s different from the one coming out on this page.

Yup.  It’s the doing of it, the doing that I’m currently doing in the present moment right now that is the victory.

Because that’s my whole goal.  To get something, something, somewhat readable, out.  To get something out and make it public and be seen and — a happy side effect — show others that they too, should they so desire, can enjoy the gift of self-expression, self-revelation, and appreciation, in this sort of bizarre ephemeral medium.

It’s not great literature.  This will not be a classic.  It will not last.  It is a moment I’m sharing with you, a thought, and now another one.  

And the cumulative effect is ... for me, joy.  

And hopefully for you, whether it’s writing or cooking or gardening or the way you arrange your desk, hopefully it’s maybe inspiring the doing of whatever it is for one’s own pleasure, not for greatness or money or productivity or because it will lead to something else or any of that but just because it makes the day a little better.  For you.  I give you that permission, to do something nice for yourself whether it’s sensible or not.

I had nothing to write today.  And yet, I’ve written the best blog of my life.  Right here.  Because my life is in this moment.  This is it.  I’m gonna keep going.
