I started this blog as a way of setting my thoughts down in some sort of order.
I thought it would help me to organise my research about my family tree. In actual fact, it's started to take me off in lots of different directions.
That's fine. I'm enjoying the journey. It's only a blog. My scribbles.
I realise that I've left Pearl in limbo while I nip off into the past looking for Sam.
I think that's ok too.
In fact, I realise that I need to just go with the flow here. Whichever direction this takes me is going to be ok.
Thing is, I used to write...about pretty much anything.
I think I lost the discipline to sit down and do that a couple of years ago.
For some reason I decided that no-one would ever want to read anything that I'd written...and that was that. I now see that it really doesn't matter whether anyone else wants to read what I've written or not.
The important thing for me now is that I want to write. I had lost the will to write.
Pearl has given that back to me.
