I blog for me. And only me. It’s an outlet for me to express myself. Share the thoughts going on in my brain. And to have a forever memory of life.
I have a few followers that read my blog. Some are family, some are friends, and some are not. And that is perfectly okay.
I like to write about things that I like. Sometimes those things might be what is going on in the world, of my favorite movies, or what my kids did, etc. I read a lot of blogs each week, and I love the ones that have their own voice. When I read blogs, I like to feel like I’m sitting down having a chai tea with them, just having a conversation. I love those types of blogs! That is why I love to blog, I do like to write and have my own voice. I have fun thinking of blog post ideas, I have fun adding photos to a blog post, and I just really enjoy it! I do wish I got paid to do it, for the amount of time and energy I put into it. Maybe monetizing the blog will come one of these days, but until then I’m going to keep on going with one of my favorite hobbies.
If you enjoy reading my blog, or just skim it from time to time, I appreciate you!
Thank you and have a great week!
I like to blog for that same reason; I feel like I have “met” so many friends on line through my blog.
Totally agree! You have been so kind always commenting on my blog. I struggle to keep up with commenting on other blogs, but I do try!
I’ve been blogging for so long and I haven’t given it up yet! I enjoy reading your blog too and following your stories on IG!

Hi Mandy – I think blogging for the joy of it, having it as a hobby, giving yourself a voice – all those things are what keep bloggers going for the long term. As soon as we take ourselves too seriously we find the well drying up. Enjoy blogging – it’s a delight. 🙂
I totally agree! Blogging is such a fun outlet.
