Looking back and reading my old posts made me laugh at myself. I was just thirteen then and I wrote stuff like that. My choice of words, my titles, the photos I posted... all I could say or do is HAHAHAHAH! I showed the blog to my older sister and made her check it out. She and I laughed at my old posts. I realized I haven't even shared it to her, to my family, and to my friends before. Maybe I just wanted a place where I could vent out my weird ideas and thoughts aside from my personal diary. Such shameless posts. But on the bright side, my mom remarked, "So nice, Myles. I can actually hear you say the written words. It was well written. Keep blogging then."
I never thought she would say that. Well, maybe I'm being too negative about this. But I kind of expected her to laugh like my sister [and I, myself] did. Her comment actually encouraged me. It got me thinking, "Oh yeah. Why don't I write again and bring the blog back to life? I started this already. Why not continue?" Also, I was inspired by this teen blog "TheRebelution.com" (I recommend you to check it out, also) at some point. They have reached to millions of young people around the globe. And I'm hoping I may be able to bless people through my blog as they come upon it. I've learned so much from different people and teens from around the world through that blog. So I may be posting some of my reflections about the things I've read there soon. Godwilling!
It's not such a bad idea, is it?
Don't worry, I'm going to try hard to make sense in my posts this time. [I was thirteen, then! Give me a break.] Now I'm 17. I'm a music major at a very good school. Praise God! I am currently learning (and trying hard to improve on my techniques on) the cello. Why the cello? Maybe I'll write about that soon also. :)
My perspectives have changed over the years. With the new experiences I went through, whose views wouldn't be turned upside down? I'm going to write when I can. And I tell you, it won't be frequent. Maybe squeezing a post here and there wouldn't hurt as I continue to meet deadlines, school requirements, and as I continue to be faithful with my practice time.
So, this is me, writing again. This is me posting once and for all in this old, cobwebbed and abandoned (once-abandoned!) blog. I'm giving it (the blog) and myself a chance. I hope that in my future posts, this blog may impact anyone who stumbles upon it. May God use this blog to encourage you... or to just make you smile, at least.
Til' next post. :)
XOXO, Myles
