So a FB friend posted that he was amused that people still blogged.... Gasp! Does this friend not know of the big 'ole blogosphere out here? Yet it got me thinking why people blog, why I blog.
Hubs asks me this question frequently, but coming from someone who is not on facebook and learned to email circa 2006, I do not give him much credence. However, I tell him I blog for me. It's a way to vent/cry/scream but also a place to have creative license. I can talk about things that interest me or bug me or I'm passionate about. Blogging is also a great way to connect with new people and network.
So although I'm rather new to blogging and haven't met any of my blog friends in person, I am proud to say I have a blog. I have learned about places, people, and fashion; I've cooked new meals, put together outfits; and most importantly I have an outlet that lets me be me! I mean where else can I go from politics to fashion in one week?
So be amused fb friend, I still like ya! So why do you blog? ~The Illegal Blonde
keep blogging! I enjoy everything you write and feel like sometime you're blogging for me too :)
ReplyDeleteKEEP up the blog! You will find it will grow SOOO MUCH! you will meet so many fun people and you will LOVE looking back at memories and cringing at embarassing layouts (not yours my dear, MY early ventures).
ReplyDeleteI blogged as a live journal 100% annonymously because I didn't want people to know where I am. But then I found I couldn't connect with people as much. I still am annonymously, with nicknames, but do have pictures.
I now blog as a journal but also to connect and be creative. And I love chatting with friends I woudld NEVER have known before.
Whew, lengthy post, but you asked the question dearie ;)!
Happy weds! xoxo
