Sometimes I feel like the rules I made or the standards I set for publishing a blog post is still too high, and I want to make blogging a more casual and enjoyable process.

Since my website has virtually no readers, and I only ever mention my site to close friends, not even my mom, it's okay to publish half done work, or sub-standard articles.

I also love journaling (unfiltered thoughts) in a messaging app and then expand them into a blog post, or just copy them here, like this:

My website is a wonderful cozy place

It’s wonderful

I love visiting it from all kinds of places , my phone, friends phone, library’s computer

I love it when they were amazed that I made the site

Nothing in my life needs to be perfect

And they can’t be

It’s ok to just write

I want to see my half done work anywhere

I love writing, actually, that’s why I don’t just post about tech to get hired

Tech is not even a priority for the site

Tech content
My website is a wonderful cozy place

I think I can be a full time blogger if I don't need to worry about money.
