Why Do I Blog?

So someone asked me recently why I blog. It’s a good question. It did make me think a lot about the concept. There are many reasons. First, I have a head full of thoughts. Blogging is a way to just take the junk floating in my head and get it out. Sometimes it is random chaos and other times it is somewhat ordered chaos. Either way I still consider it chaos. And it is mine and I love it. And I hate it at times as well. This is me. I have a love/hate relationship with my thoughts.

Second, I feel that blogging helps develop my writing. I did not study writing in college but I do feel like I am not a shabby writer. I feel like I definitely have a lot to learn. As you write you learn how to turn a phrase or sometimes come up with a better cliché. Writing in a blog provides practice for something I love. And I don’t know why tapping out letters makes me happy, but it does. Maybe I like to be humorous at times and it is very difficult to do in written form? And it is so gratifying when you actually pull it off! Even if you don’t actually LOL but you do slightly lift the corner of your mouth. That is gratification.

Third, I like to just tell the crazy antics of my life. Sometimes the stupidest and craziest things happen and I am wondering if the rest of the world has ever had these stupid things happen. Or I just have something on my mind and just need it off my mind. Blogging is much cheaper than therapy, as I have stated before. I like to let people know about this craziness and sometimes also let them see the softer side of me, too. I have a lot of walls built up. Blogging allows me to let the walls down from time to time when I feel safe.

So why do I blog? Many reasons that create some order for me. Anyone else? Why do you blog? I may have questions for you! I love to learn!!!!

The Funny Thing About Blogs

 

The funny thing about blog posts is that some people I know read them and assume they are targeted for one person or subject. Sometimes they are just because I know about something. Sometimes they are about someone I know. Sometimes it isn’t about the person that everyone assumes it is about. It’s funny.

A lot of the info here is directly from my life. I mean blogs are personal. Right? We draw on what we know. Life experience. But sometimes we draw on stuff we see or hear. So not everything has happened specifically to me. Thank God! Lord have mercy if it had. I’d be much more screwed up than I already am if it had. I’m already kinda crazy. (in a good way I think, well hope)

So, friends, don’t despair. It’s not all about you. It’s not even all about me. It’s just about life.

Run Out Of Things To Say Today

I think I have run out of things to say today. Have you ever done that? You think about blogging because you haven’t done it in a couple of days and when you try to come up with something to write about there is just nothing. No, it’s not because my mind is blank. Sometimes I wish that was the case. No, maybe the problem is that I have too much on my mind! Most of it is way too personal to share here and the rest of it is just not worth blogging about. So sorry…for now I have just run out of things to say. On that note, I am going to sleep. Hope you are having a good day!

Ever Wonder?

If you’re a blogger do you ever wonder who is reading and why? Some days I get little hits at all and then other days it is like something happened and the stats go up significantly. It makes me wonder why. It makes me wonder who.

I am quite happy that there are people reading. I used to wonder if anyone would read anything I wrote. I used to wonder if I had any talent. Now I don’t wonder quite so much. I just write. I have to. It makes me feel better and does something for my soul.

I hope that the readers will continue to go up. I love having people check out my views and thoughts. Thanks to everyone who does!
