I haven't done this in a while. It's a lot of pressure, having a blog that no one reads. Whenever I even considered starting to write, I would remind myself of the many excuses that a simple mind such as mine finds convenient when confronted with any extraneous challenges. Too tired, too busy, too stupid. In the end, I subconsciously attempted to give up. Unfortunately for me, and for you, I failed. Here I am.
Inward struggles always seem to get the best of me. If you're like me, after committing to a chocolate boycott (or whatever else anyone gives up), you find yourself consuming or taking part in said "forbidden fruit" more so than you had in the first place. And that's the key, isn't it? Forbidden. What's wrong with us? Why is it that the very moment something becomes taboo that it also becomes the most desirable thing on the planet? Why can't we just accept the rules and ignore this... ego? that swells up in a toddler-esque tantrum every time it hears the words "can't," "don't," or "shouldn't"?
I'm not even talking about food. That subject, however, is more easily broached than the one that has been clouding up my brain cells for the past forty-eight hours. It's a tough life, being female.
