Of Blocks, Farts and Freezes

    I have made many attempts at starting a blog and writing blog posts in the past, but it seems like the underlying theme of it all is that I can never start or finish any of them.  I have great content and ideas for the very middle of the post, but I can never seem so come up with a beginning or an end.

   Whenever I sit down with a keyboard under my fingers my brain decides that it is time to stop functioning and make me feel like a complete idiot.  Which ponders the question: Am I thinking too much? Too little? Or, does the creative part of my brain just not include the written word?  Maybe vlogging would be a better idea for me? But, then again, I hate the sound of my own voice and think I make weird facial expressions.  So here we are, back at square one!

    I think one of the greatest things about having a blog is the fact that you don't have to have perfect content or be a great writer.    You just have to be yourself.   After all people want to read something personal and understandable, something that is relatable.

    So here I am, not in any way a perfect writer. By all means, don't expect loads of deep, interesting content.  I put the word fart in the title for pete's sake!  If you read this blog then you will get Mark, not an imitator or copy of someone else.  I hope that is enough for you because that is all I have to give.
