Why Do I Blog?
There’s a new meme going around called “Five Reasons Why I Blog” and Christine of Flooring the Consumer has tagged me...

Well, when I first started blogging, I did it for the sole purpose of sharing random thoughts and ideas that came to mind.  Now my blogging hobby has turned into a full-blown career which has put me in contact with so many wonderful people.  Never in a million years did I think I would be making a living through writing. Yet, here I am!  blogging.jpg

So, why do I blog?  

1.  To share my stories and experiences.  I believe that each of us has a story to tell which we can share to help others.  Each and every one of us is an expert at something.  Why keep that wisdom and knowledge to yourself?

2.  To connect with other like-minded people.  I love to read about and learn from other people who blog.  

3.  I love to write.  I feel compelled to do it.  It was what I was born to do.  When I was four I begged my parents to get me a typewriter....and the rest is history.  

4.  The internet fascinates me.  I love the fact that you could create a website and make money at the touch of a button.  I love that you could literally connect with thousands of people and be able to help and uplift them in some way or another through your words.  

5.  To have something for people to remember me by.  My future grandchildren can simply log on to the web and see all my work.  Isn’t that amazing?  

Well, now it’s my turn to tag a few people:

+ Douglas Hanna
+ Tim Draayer
+ Scott Young
+ Tom Vander Well &
+ Glenn Ross

Thanks, Maria. I love your reasons, especially the last one about your grandchildren.

Christine,

I have no record of and never knew any of my ancestors, so I want to leave a legacy for my children and this is one of the more interesting ways of doing it ;)

Thanks for tagging me!

Hi Maria, we never know where links lead. Mike Sansone linked to me, I linked to Christine and now here you are. This was a surprise to me when I visited your site today. I enjoyed #3 - that you feel compelled to write and that your parents were smart and gave you a typewriter when you were four. And from here, you now have a legacy for your grandchildren.

All the best to a great blogger!
