Taking some time away

Before I really get into this, I want to say that this IS a happy post, please keep that in mind 😂

This past week I have moved into my first house. It’s been stressful, I don’t have flooring yet, but it’s mine and I love it. Outside of this stress, I’ve never been happier. Now, that’s awesome, and I’m so happy to feel happy, but it does draw in some issues with what I post.

I’ve said it before, but all of my posts are incredibly sentimental to me. Whether they’re directly about me or others, they’re still my depictions. Unfortunately, I’ve always used creative writing to deal with these feelings, and when I walked into this house, it felt like another chapter had closed. I don’t want to be sad. I don’t want to look at things through a “this is just life” lens. Life is incredible. All of this to say, I don’t know how to write something that doesn’t have these sadder emotions connected to it, and I don’t want to force myself to write either. My life is great, and I’ve done so much (let a brother get a bit ego-centric) considering the cards I’ve been dealt throughout my early years, even leading up to the present day, to the point that I know there is now nothing I cannot get through. I don’t want to taint that by forcing myself to write “sad stuff”, and so I think it’s time to wind down.

Am I deleting this publication? Definitely not! I’ve made some incredible connections whilst being here, and you’ve all been so lovely to me. I cannot thank you enough. I’ll still be floating around, popping in to see what’s up, but I think my posts are going to move towards a “if and when I feel like I want to” kinda thing.

This community, speaking specifically to everyone in The Sisyphus Club, has been incredible. You guys have truly validated my belief that I can write stuff that people will read. I’m not throwing that away, and I will still be firing into our chat here and there, but I just wanted to dedicate a smaller section of this post to the people that brought us here. I will cherish it more than you’ll ever know.

I have two or three collabs that I still need to work on (excitinggggg) and I wont be bailing on these! However, there is a good chance that they’ll be the finale of The Sisyphus Club, so stick around for a few more weeks!

Let’s say goodbye with a smile!

Love you guys, always and forever,

your wee silly Sisyhpus,

Aaron
