I used to be diligent with my blogging back in the aughts, and would post at least two or three times a month. It was mostly an expressive exercise to keep my mind sharp.
But as with many things that interest us in life, sometimes other things end up eating into our available time, we lose focus or interests wanes.
Here we are in 2025, and I feel I need to start writing again. The last time I actively maintained my old blog I was in my 30s. Now I am in my 50s and feel the need to write more than ever.
So consider this the point of origin of Jon’s Journal 2.0 where I will be sharing my thoughts about life, politics, programming, hockey, hiking or whatever else interests me on any given day.
Cheers,
–Jon
