Hi there folks. =) How has life been treating you? I'm still thankful for mine, I'm still excited about what God is doing in my life after all that's happened since I came to trust Him. It's not been a bed of roses, it's not been smooth sailing. If you've been following my blog all this while you'll have heard of the major events that have taken place in my life.
But recently there's been what the military would call a 'radio silence'. Online communities have missed the voice of one that used to unabashedly talk about anything and everything under the sun. What happened to Vincent Wang?
Why the apparent distance and secrecy and lack of heart to heart sharing online? If you all have been reading, this change is nothing seismic in nature, but have been taking place over a period of time slowly. I don't know why exactly, and I look back and wonder with equal perplexity and scratch my head too (actually there's been a flyer going around with a picture of me scratching my head. Totally unglam lor). I know that I no longer am able to just talk about what's been happening in my life or what I'm thinking about so spontaneously anymore. That sort of behavior has somewhat been sidelined as something one would do as a reckless youth. Have I grown too old for such stuff? Hmm.
Has it been that nothing interesting has been happening in my life lately that I would stop blogging? That is not true either. Plenty have been happening in many areas of my life and those who I keep in touch with more regularly would know that to be true. The rest of you would have to be playing the scratch and guess game through reading stuff on my blog.
Let's not kid ourselves, I know I don't write solidly anymore. Someone just called me an Eeyore lately, and maybe that is true to a certain extent. =P
But I still do wanna come back here and express the hopes and fears that I have, the dreams I have and the sights that have captured my attention. But more than that I still wanna express thoughts I have that I hope will inspire and encourage.
It's just that I had gone through a time when I really questioned why I wanted all that. Some blog just to express themselves, others write to update about busy happenings. Me? What do I write for? I really do hope the things I write can continue to be thought provoking because that means that my thoughts are still being provoked.
If there ever were a Blog community pledge day, I would pledge on that day to be free to express spontaneously always. We are free to love.
Live well and look out for this space. The silence is broken.
My little feet left footprints
