So I made a post about what I wanted to do for this coming August. In short, something that could mirror how I started it last year, with different targets in mind. Two are already in early draft, while others haven’t started yet.

And honestly, I’m not seeing any reason to do so. At least not in the way I had planned, or with the energy I had planned to write it in.

So much of this blog has put time and effort towards me venting about different people that exist(ed) in my life, and the lessons I’ve learned and learning about them. To encapsulate it a year later in the intended format almost feels like repeating an old habit.

The primary ones I could write about may give me reason to make a whole new entry regarding them, between the time this posts, and August. Others may feel like a public rumination of who they were to me.

But as I’ve written this, a new way to approach the August theme came to mind.

“Why not write ‘thank you’ letters?”

Think about it. None of this would have been possible without their unintentional support, combined with my unique experiences with them, and other ways my brain works that I’m trying not to mislabel.

They do deserve thanks for what they’ve done and who they are, even more who they’ve chosen to be. I’ve made my choices too while developing this blog, and they’ve helped me further detach from their ideas of me.

So I’ll go ahead with the mini-series under a new mindset. One that reflects more of who I’ve become in the time I’ve written so much, and still have plenty more to go.
