On TUMBLR
commentary part 32

If you have been following my Tumblr site, you will know I’ve been posting zealously for the past two months are so. I typically post a guestimated seven posts in a single day. These posts range from links to news articles I find amusing to random photos hidden in my pictures folder to fantastic quotes I come across while reading a book.

My Tumblr is basically an accumulation of things that interest me. They don’t take me any further than a faint interest though. I come across it, I think to myself, “Oh, that’s interesting,” and then I simply show it to the world.

And with Tumblr’s ridiculous feature called Tumblarity, which “measures” a person’s Tumblr popularity, my posts began to cater specifically to the Tumblr audience. I posted images and quotes that I thought were interesting, but only ones that I thought other people would be interested in too.

I was limiting, restraining, hiding who I was depicting myself to be and revealing a very limited glimpse of who I am. I was essentially censoring myself, which is something I try not to do in my writing, in my blogs, in my life.

My Tumblarity will reach 0 in a couple days and I will end my hiatus and begin posting again. Only this time, I’m going to approach Tumblr with the perspective to post things of value.

I cannot hide who I am. My interests and tastes run deeper than aesthetic merit. I am fascinated with life and the Creator who has given all things good and perfect. I am not ashamed of being a daughter of Christ and the truth. My salvation is the greatest joy and I will celebrate it with all who I am.

Why does it take so much to remember? Why so much to come back?
