Focus Theme

[focus-theme-blog]

Oh my goodness, what is this sorcery? I'm pressing buttons on this flat metal slab and words are appearing on the screen!!! Is the computer reading my MIND??

Nope, it’s actually you sending yourself a phony message so you can make an example Q/A post. Thankfully, you do know how to use a computer. Still, I can completely imagine someone from a time before typewriters being wondrously baffled by the magic of my MacBook Pro.

Text Post with Image...

● Not all posts with images are a photo post. Sometimes, you want to add a visual to written content. Simply put, there are many exceptions to the rules. Don’t feel like being defined by a category? Embrace that! Rather than coloring between or outside the lines, you’re allowed to slip between the cracks–finding another path as of yet undiscovered.

● Who wouldn’t want plenty of visualization? Variety is the spice of life. Without seeing all the variables, we’re left with a colorless impression. Instead, allow this post to act as yet another example.

Is This Enough Content?

Anonymous: How about some more posts? This way people can actually SCROLL through this theme preview.

Good point phony Anonymous person, and so well said.

So You Want to Scroll…

● I am but a servant to you, oh might perfectionism. Seriously, why am I still typing? I hope you – the one random person who’s actually reading this – know that I’m doing this all in one sitting. After all, who needs breaks? *Forced laugh turns into sobs*

● Being selfless is what I’ll call this. My motivations have nothing to do with my arguably obsessive traits. Is it a hassle? Yes. Is this taking up time better spent on Netflix? Absolutely. Still, do I regret constantly running into a mental wall and staring at a blinking marker for several seconds at a time? That’s the real question, for which my answer is no. Nor do I regret the run-on sentence!

Another Example Post

This time, with words…

Let’s face it: example posts are important. Why? There’s many reasons, but here’s a few…

Example Posts Having Meaning.

● They allow you to see what your blog will look like. Don’t you want to visualize your own posts? How are you going to do that without a preview? Example posts are the figurative tires of a theme inspection. Kick when ready.

● They help theme builders. While the ‘sample posts’ provided by Tumblr are helpful, nothing beats some fleshy faux content. Just look at all this writing!

● They just…look good. Alright, so I may be running out of things to talk about. Is that going to stop me? No! And if you think I’d forgotten about list-making, you’re wrong…

Behold: a list item! Enjoy it’s gloriously indented nature. This list refuses to follow the same margin as the mainstream paragraphs.

And what’s this? Another one? Goodness, I’m on a role. If you need a moment to collect yourself, I’ll understand. Such rambled beauty can be daunting for the newly initiated.

Imagine: Using This Theme

“Shameless you are.” - Yoda (During an Imaginary Conversation)

● I see you’ve fallen into my trap. *Cue evil cackling* Yes, you couldn’t resist reading this ramble! Where you surprised to find an actually followable stream of words?

● I’m just as surprised as you are. Really, how else are you going to picture yourself using this theme unless I give you actual content. Granted, said content’s quality is questionable (being kind), but it’s better than a blank page.

● Again, I’m running out of words. Did you know humans can only focus for 35 minutes before needing a break? I’ve lasted about two. Then again, it is late…and I am typing random filler…

End Notes:

● I did this for you! Alright, I also typed this for myself. That being said, please know that I’m very bored and feeling very much like a student trying to reach my minimum word limit.

Yet Another Post

It’s like a weird sequel…

So, you want more text posts? You’ve got them! Here are some words. Words, words–so many, many words. While it may seem as though I’m simply trying to fill space with lengthy verbiage… Well… Actually, that’s exactly what I’m doing.

SHH! Don’t tell anyone.

Alright, you know my secret. Empty words, perhaps–but at least, we can be honest with each other.

Get tough with it, get strong.

“Painting should do one thing. It should put happiness in your heart.” - Bob Ross

When things happen - enjoy them. They're little gifts. You've got to learn to fight the temptation to resist these things. Just let them happen.

Nothing's gonna make your husband or wife madder than coming home and having a snow-covered dinner. We'll have a super time. We'll put a happy little bush here. Just let these leaves jump off the brush You can do it.

Let's have a little bit of fun today. Talk to trees, look at the birds. Whatever it takes. We don't have to be concerned about it. We just have to let it fall where it will. If you've been in Alaska less than a year you're a Cheechako. And right there you got an almighty cloud.

You're the greatest thing that has ever been or ever will be. You're special. You're so very special. Let your imagination be your guide. That's a crooked tree. We'll send him to Washington. You have to make almighty decisions when you're the creator.

Fluff that up. Trees grow however makes them happy. You can bend rivers. But when I get home, the only thing I have power over is the garbage. Absolutely no pressure. You are just a whisper floating across a mountain.

This is unplanned it really just happens. Poor old tree. Just relax and let it flow. That easy.
