I am 150

I am 150!. I want to shout it from the top of my office, but I don't want to be called crazy. I always thought nothing can stop me from writing once I've been bitten by the writing bug. But, alas! Life is not a fairy tale, nor do I a story teller that I have to write as if my life dependent on it. How I wish I can be as active as before, and able to write whether and whenever I wish to do it. 

I know I should stop whining, but hey, this is the only outlet where I can whine about it. LOL. So, please forgive me.

Anyway, I didn't realise that actually I've achieved my own milestones in writing blogs. I've actually achieved the number 150 blogs. Though I wish I can achieve it sooner, but I guess the old adage, 'It's better late than never' is true in my case.

150 seems just a small number, and nothing important to shout about. However, it's a number to motivate me to write. It's something tangible for me to reach. Ask anyone and they will tell you that by aiming a certain number, it's really the motivation that drives you. Case point, this month's challenge within a challenge.

If there's no number that we're striving so hard to achieve, I don't think we will see and read so many blogs as it is now. The number maybe is irrelevant at the end of the whole scheme, but it's the biggest drive. 

So by achieving this another small milestones in my writing, I can set another milestone for the future. Maybe it can be the next number which is 200 blogs, or maybe posting at least a blog for a week. But whatever it is, I think we; ourselves, should always celebrate our small achievement and milestone.

And finally, to all MyEC bloggers who are striving so hard to achieve this month's challenge within a challenge, I salute you guys. Your dedication is really something to be admired upon.
