You'd think choosing a topic would be easy...
...but it's sometimes more difficult than it is when I'm choosing a topic for my other blog, musicandradiomusings.blogspot.com. I compare it to shopping at a small grocery store or pharmacy instead of a large one. I compare this blog to a big store because the parameters are so wide open, it's easy for my mind to stagnate. My other blog, however, has a narrower focus, much like a small store. There, I'm forced to zero in on a particular topic in a field that interests me a lot, so choosing something to write about there is sometimes easier. Having an abundance of choices on a this blog is a blessing and a curse. I never expect to run out of ideas, given how vast the premise of random musings is. There will be times, however, when I stop in the middle of an aisle, metaphorically speaking. Occasionally, when I'm shopping at Target, I have to remind myself to focus and not let the seemingly endless variety of choices overwhelm me. This is one of those times.
