The Moleskine Dilemna
I am a writer at heart and my moleskine notebook goes with me everywhere. I write everything from personal thoughts to thematic inquiries into philosophy. I’ve had people ask me to read it and it’s difficult to say yes. My best writing can be found in that little black notebook, but it’s personal.
Where do you draw the line between your professional and personal life? Take a moment and think about it. What part of you do you keep a secret? As a blogger this line blurs and doesn’t have exact distinction however we all have secrets. Revealing segments of this eccentricity is the road less traveled… but just think of how original you’d be.
I mean it when I suggest a moment to sit and think. I have many hours to do so personally being without a job, sitting in coffee shops, surrounded by corporate chaos. The line is a very delicate one, and I’m not one to advocate destroying it completely. I do believe you need a distinct personal life outside of your profession. However, ponder with me: What if you were to scoot the line over just a little? Just enough to show just a little more.
Leave a comment with a little taste for the world…
I’ll start: I secretly wait for people to spill drinks so I can exercise saving the day.

Now my book is full and I have to go through it and put undone tasks in the new one…

Yeah, I’ve noticed I have the same problem having to go back through - although it’s nice to look back at dreams I have/had!
