Why do I blog?
Why do I blog? It is something many people ask me when they find out I do. It is not a question I ever really know how to answer.
I wanted to connect with people I wanted to share what I knew and learn from others. I started to bug my work to set up a website a few years back and when they finally did I found that they yes were advertising what we had to offer but nothing more. I wanted to see a site put out there that had useful information and was interesting to visit.
I finally decided not to wait for someone else to do it but do it myself. I had something to share with the world, even if no one wanted to listen. I started first with a plan of what I wanted to put out there to the world. This is when I realized how many different areas I had of interest to share.
First I had my many years of service with working with children and all that I had learned through work. I also had a joy of cooking that I wanted to share. I do not have a child of my own but I have the issues and joys of having a step son who has also taught me so much. I thought other moms and or step moms like myself could connect about these topics. Then of course there was my very large fur and feather family. This is when I realized this blog would not just be about one. It would be about many things… It would be about me. Everything I went through and everything I wanted to share.
I have only been doing this site for a short time but I have really enjoyed it. Though this experience I have learnt from other fellow bloggers and connected with people half way across the world that have been there to chat when I needed an ear. Today the community that is blogging is just that, a community. It is so much more than just ideas on paper but more so thoughts and feelings, connecting and sharing. It is a community I love being in.
Hope to connect with all of you in the near future.
