Over the last few years my activity on this blog has definitely decreased. I suspect that it is a combination of a lack of time and a sense of not having an audience. The blogosphere has changed over the last few years. This is the age of the social media influencer. I see a lot of activity on Twitter and Instagram now. When I started my blog I was an undergraduate student trying to apply to medical school. That seems like a lifetime ago. And in a digital/technology world, that is several lifetimes ago.
But I have to remind myself that when I started blogging, it wasn’t for the audience. It was for me. At the root of it all, writing was cathartic. And I need to get back to writing for me. And if there are friends who want to follow the journey, then that is a bonus.
