Welcome!
Schopenhauer says when we read we effectively follow someone else’s thought process. But if we stay in permanent read-only mode, we gradually lose our own capacity for thinking.
Fair point, but not everyone has hours to spare detailing new ideas every day. Writing doesn’t have to be ambitious and time consuming though.
My goal here is recording and clarifying my own thinking. Some say that the best way to deeply understand something is to write about it.
I recently got introduced to some indieweb principles which motivated me to create a place for myself on the internet. Gardening your own corner of the internet is fun, and I should definitely write more about this to encourage others.
As for now, I’m not starting any blog challenge but I try to keep practicing writing regularly. I hope it turns out to be useful to anyone else.
