I honestly cannot remember the reason that I started blogging (stop and scratch head). All I know is that now, although I feel corny to admit it, blogging serves as an outlet for me to express my thoughts and opinions without borders. I have never had a hard time "telling it like it is." but blogging let's me do it even better.
I write about what I want and when I want. It is the only place where I feel that I can accurately put my thoughts into "words." Have you ever wanted to say something or express a particular thought, yet were not able to put that thought into words that make any kind of sense? I usually sound like I am babbling, but I swear there is some devoted meaning to my thoughts. (dude that was insightful)
Sometimes though I will admit that I get caught up in the whole...who exactly is reading this? Even though we all blog for a variety of reasons, we don't really mind people reading it right? Well I can assume that is right, because if we cared about any kind of "privacy" regarding our blogs, they would be completely private, or we would find the old school "journal or diary" to express these thoughts.
I just wish that I had been able to blog my entire life. Maybe then I would have been able to let people hear things from the "horses mouth" rather then have them speculate tons of random issues. I know that this may seem random in itself and that's okay. It's okay because I do not write for an audience, I write for myself...and if you enjoy reading...well that is just an added bonus for me. Thanks!

I love reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jennifer! I appreciate the feedback! I enjoy reading yours too! What people don't always know is that when you comment or participate on other bloggers blogs they are more inclined to check out what you have been up to on your blog.

I like your blog too. I know that sometimes poeple may not leave comments but they always are checking on the blogs for updated things too. But the comments always mean a lot!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading and I like what I read.
ReplyDeleteI have a background in acting and I am used to having that as a creative outlet. I came to blogging because since becoming a mom there isn't much acting in my life. I discovered my voice in a completely different and liberating way because I am not hiding behind a character and someone else's words. This is the most honest I've ever been.
Thanks BrownSugarBabe and Unknown Mami! I know it can be hard when there is sooooo much info to read and blogs to see. It is indeed amazing at how freeing blogging is and the ability to speak in your own voice is liberating. I have to agree that this is the most honest I too have been, but its hard sharing sometimes.
