Pendulations
Let’s keep the name.

Defined by Merriam-Webster as: a pendular movement : OSCILLATION
I wonder why I had chosen, then, this name for a publication. Still, it’s a restarting of an old resting place.

From before, it seemed a place to ramble and to ruminate; for what would come after before, well, seems safe to say that I’ll wont it to be more a mindful space to explore thoughts pondered upon and to move forward from.
With topics ranging from mental health to poetry wrung from emotional knots, to maybe even the occasional stream of consciousness to loosen some bolts and thoughts.
Let’s get writing and exploring again. Let’s be brave enough to experiment once more within this space of breathing in and out, of swinging back and forth; to eventually be moving on.

We can’t seem to go back and write as we once did in a voice that we once had. So, why should we not — focus on the tone and style we have now and will too, one day be gone.
Nothing lasts for forever; this moment is good enough to be yours.
Edit/Author’s Note:
All right, this was a little bit of a crappy update but I think I was — I am — just rather eager to get back into writing consistently on a more public platform and so, I jumped the gun a little with a very sparse “article” but the plan is to, perhaps, use this space to further research into certain therapeutic skills I’ve learnt and or am learning and to figure out my way into crafting my being into becoming someone with both the emotional resilience and range to be there for myself and others. // Towards a comfortable pay check and an even bigger heart. That’s the goal; that’s the pendulating thought.
