 |   All that remains: here in my afterlife as a 'mainstream' blogger, with what little I know. |
| You know, I consider all the contests and activities, but...there are some who slip in way too many rules and I have to mentally check out. Sometimes, I pursue something with earnest and submit only to find out there are too many rules to proceed. I don't know what this need is to limit length. I get prompts and themes. I do understand content rating. But, while I'm considering each and every one, some rule might get left out or forgotten in a toilsome process. I have a notion the idea is to encourage participation. Some activity organizers have caught on, dropped nearly all rules. No one actually gives reviews or a reason for their decisions, in many activities. If it is because too many rules get enforced, it's a shame these shackles in the spirit of encouraging writing and participating. Just know, I'm still trying. But, the tedium of each contest with it's own unique sets of rules is limiting. What is the true aim of these activities? I have to step back and reconsider whether it's even worth time to *click*. I'd like to think, it's not just me. Vision is part of the problem. ADD might be another. But, with the pool of potential participators on this site, might want to consider all the types of limitations we seem to share here, at WDC. This was more than I planned to share in newsfeed. Copy and paste to blog and forget again? I think, lowering my expectations of participation in this community leaves out the emotional fuel I desire to write. I have to abandon most everything in this desire to seek and reach higher plains of understanding through writing. But, mostly, this doesn't make sense and robs me of my energy, which I assume is also needed here for members to function. Harnessed, but not a plough share. I have to consider that last thought for another time. 9.23.21 Can't Quantify How To Qualify? Quantification Has Ramifications? My Qualifications Have Limitations? I know how you all like the sing-songy, rhymey stuff. *Bangs head softly on kitchen table* I added 'kitchen' where most would not. Is it as simple as one adjective? Have I gone too far? |
