The Struggling Blogger

These last few weeks I have been active in my blogging. In fact, I think I have blogged like crazy. Trying to maintain five different blogs with different theme for each, actively. Consciously making an effort that not one of these blogs will be left behind. I guess I have even surpassed my projected 5 posts per week.

What I have done may not be that much for more active bloggers, but as far as I’m concern, this is way over my personal expectations. All these because all this time I have been unemployed. Yes! All the while I’ve been without a compensation. As to how we have managed or survived all these times is nothing but miracles. It’s not because I don’t want to work or anything. In fact there were number of times I attempted to get employed, but I was unfortunate that I don’t get hired. Hence the name, The Struggling Blogger.

But now, things are about to change. As hope shines anew… I could in fact get myself employed after all. While I don’t want to get my hopes too high, there is still a better chance that I can get it this time. BUT… once employed, am I going to stop blogging?

If I would be asked to make a choice, I guess it would be the more practical and obvious one. As I do have kids that I need to send to school. But blogging to me has become a therapy. And while I may not earn from it, it gives me much satisfaction and fullfilment once I’m able to publish a post. But like I said, it doesn’t bring food on the table.

Financial is hardly the reason why I might stop blogging, but the possibility that the new job (should I get hired) would require me to work full time and even overtime. And because of this, I might miss out on the opportunity to blog. This is really no biggie, as life would always go on whether I blog or not.

I guess only a blogger can relate to what I’m going through here. Maybe I might manage to insert some posts here and there once in a while. It could just be once or twice a month, but at least I’m blogging. I may not meet the required numbers, at least I won’t have stop doing what I love to do.

Then… I won’t have to stop… I don’t want to stop.
