6th May 2015 Challenge
Dear Reader,
Thank you for visiting my blog. I'm accepting this challenge because I miss blogging.
Ever since I joined Facebook, I've lost the interest to write. I suppose now that many people know who the real "MrsNordin" is, I have to be careful about what I write.
And that's boring.
Not that I write anything nasty or offensive, I was just expressing my feelings. But somehow some people may not like it.
Do I care? No, I don't. But after a while, it was just getting on my nerves.
So I have to write "safe" stories.
And again, that's boring.
Nevertheless, back in the days when I was actively blogging, I kind of like the feeling when someone whom I've never met before suddenly approached me and asked, "Are you MrsNordin?"
Or, suddenly someone told me out of the blue, "Oh, I think I saw MrNordin the other day!"
That was a great feeling. Thank you! That means, there are people who actually enjoyed my stories.
I don't think I am able to write about my husband like before, now that he is also on Facebook. If I am annoyed with him, I can't possibly vent my anger here anymore. Nanti kecil hati, or he would scream, "Why can't you just tell me? Why do you have to tell the whole world?!"
He has a point.
And my kids? They are all grown up. I can't bear to write anything which may hurt their feelings. Good stories, yes... But bad stories? I'd better keep them to myself. Sometimes, it's better that way.
The only person who I can write about (and he won't be so mad at me even if I do) is my little rascal, Nizzar. But he's not so little anymore. He just turn 9 today. He knows how to search and read my blog. Sometimes when we are in bed, I'd read him the old stories about him in my blog. Stories when he was 2 or 3 years old, when he was naughty.. and we'd laugh together.
So, what's the purpose of this blog?
It has defeated its old purpose. I have to come up with something new to write about.. new ideas..
But, up til now, I still can't figure it out. I'm still searching for an answer. Until I find one, I guess there is no compelling reason to write.
Perhaps someone can give me an idea. That would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I decided to revive my www.sabre23t.com blog slightly differently. What about recreating the blog on my preferred social media, almost as it was in 2009 ... http://web.archive.org/web/20110207205228/http://www.sabre23t.com/ ?
So I did just that, my new blog is at my G+ Collections page ... https://plus.google.com/+SMSabriIsmail/collections
Keep writing and I'll keep reading!
See you again soon! Take care.
