Yep! There's lots of change going on! I know you've heard it before but...here's a secret...we're gettin' closer!!!! Gotta tell ya...I'm excited but more on that later. For now...a little bit about Why I blog! I was reading a nice post over at The Curious Pug which summed things up pretty clearly except for one part! See if you can tell which part didn't quite fit me. Here it is...
I blog for myself, to remember things and places I go.
To get things off my chest.
To connect with others.
To help me see things laid out in front of me.
To hear your opinions and know that I'm not alone.
To meet new people I wouldn't otherwise meet in real life.
To express myself.
To find like minded people.
To share things I make.
To share things I love.
To keep myself busy when unemployment gets me down.
To have a reason to play with Photoshop.
To have a place to keep track of all my favorite things & inspirations.
To inspire others.
Okay so I helped a bit with the bold red highlighted and underlined area!!!! LOL! Here's my own version....
I most definitely blog for myself to keep track of the fantabulous experiences of places and people in my life...kinda like an online diary without a key!
I blog ...
to tell stories and express myself
to share recipes enjoyed by family and friend
to share creativity and projects I make
to provide inspiration (hopefully)
to meet new people and share ideas, thoughts and opinions
to express my complete views now that I am partially retired (oh my goodness, I am retired...still getting used to it but really feeling it at this time of year!)
to share good news and bad
to continue the life long learning process with technology
to connect with others
There you have it! It's out in the open now for all to see. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Feel free to share you story and tell us why you blog? Or...why you don't blog!!!!
Happy Summer!
