to write only about my subjective experience

In my blogging journey so far I've mostly tried to write as if I had the facts. For example, with my boundaries post I attempted to create something along the lines of a definitive guide— where I'm sharing my final conclusions and treating them as true— rather than, for example, sharing my subjective experience of a bunch of stuff that really happened and what I'm concluding from it.

I wish I could write 'definitive guide'-quality content for the topics I find interesting, but I don't think I'm skilled enough for that. I keep trying to draft posts like this and failing. So maybe with my posts all I can do is offer my subjective experience, and let readers conclude what they will.

But what I can't do is ensure that any particular reader understands what I'm trying to convey. I can't write for everyone. I think I've been carrying a contradiction along these lines for a long time. (Ironically, this is just boundaries again: I can't make anyone understand me; that's not mine.)

There's a thing that's writing for the people who currently read my blog, and there's a thing that's writing for people who will become the future audience of my blog. And I think I've been neglecting the latter.

So I'm going to experiment with this for a while. I expect that my next posts are going to become a lot more like journaling, which I find exciting. And, hey, at least when I write like this it's a lot harder to be wrong:)
