Create Share Love | Living Light - Taking a Break

When I picked my one little word® "light" at the end of last year, one of my biggest goal was (and still is) to spend less time online and embrace my offline time more often. In the last few weeks I really thought a lot about what that means for me and my online presence (aka my blog). In the end, I spend many hours on my blog. Creating content, taking photos, writing posts, answering comments. And although I am really proud of my blog and the stuff I share here I realized, that at the moment I want to spend less time on it.

I want to feel lighter again and this will only happen when I remove the pressure. The pressure of constantly making something for the blog vs. making something just for fun. The pressure of spending my fridays, saturdays and sometimes sundays working on my blog. The pressure of writing two blog posts per week. And let's be clear, that's something no one expects from me, it's just what I expect from myself.

Maybe I am a little bit too black and white. I like the thought of "all or nothing". But to be honest, the greys between are a much better place to be. I don't have and want to stop blogging at all. I just want to take a short break and than figure out what I really want. This maybe means one blog post per week.This maybe means a blog post whenever I want to share something. This maybe means two blog posts per week. I really don't know what the future helds in his hands. But I'm excited to find out.

In the meantime you can always follow me on Instagram or browse the archives.
