Returning to Form

It's been a while. Quite a while, in fact. But such is life. Just when you think that everything is going to be okay, things take a sudden, unexpected turn. Two things lead to the lack of activities on this site. The most predominant reason was twitch.tv - I spent too much time creating live video content and it felt productive and immediately rewarding compared to writing though I eventually realized that was not necessary true. Then recently, I found myself being displaced from my home. I lost immediate access to my games. It took me weeks to be able to access my Personal Computer again and it took months before I was able to inch closer to stability.

As you may suspect, I am a creature who breathe and live video games. They are at the center of my existence. Thus, losing control over them hurts. A lot. The scarier thing I have learned over these last couple of months away from almost the entirety of my Game Library however is that humans are flexible little beings. Through the most painful of experiences, the most damning of situations, we grow cold and we adapt. Yes, there were moments when I thought that everything was over, that perhaps I have lived enough to enjoy what I wanted to get out of life. It's never over until it is over they said but I didn't know that the corners of the room would be so dim, so dark. It was almost an automatic process. All it needed was a little bit of optimism. Keep yourself alive long enough and you will find enough distractions to continue on.

There is still a lot of work to be done and I hope to be able to get to where I needed to be soon. I have to take things one step at a time. I plan to be more active here and post more content. I don't have access to good Internet at the moment but once I do, I also would like to continue with my adventures on twitch. It's nice to still feel motivated about life and I'm glad I'm still interested in video games.

Yoshi is definitely doing better than me.
