A number of thoughts have popped into my mind as possible topics for today’s post, but I just finally realized that I’m subtly restraining–even “self-censoring”–myself!
Hmmmm…
For now I just want to reflect on the fact that I’m even doing it, but I’ll also need to take time to inquire into “why”. After all, this is supposed to be my safe place, (pretty much) anything goes, stream-of-consciousness blog post!
Seems clear that there’s still some insecurity to overcome, the sense that a particular idea isn’t interesting enough, or isn’t entirely “correct”, etc.
But considering how positive the feedback has been, I have to conclude that my own inner critic is the culprit. Boy, is he hard to get rid of!
