I am forgetful, we are all forgetful. This morning I left my mobile phone at home and it will be a day to get by without it. Fortunately I am connected at work so it’s not as big a deal as it could be. This does provide an interesting throwback Thursday though. It takes me back to a time when I didn’t worry about having a phone and I wasn’t hyper connected to everyone and everything everywhere I went. Nevertheless its still frustrating to forget something that has become a part of ones everyday life. Yes I know this is a first world problem and there are more serious things to be worried about. My phone gets the day off from me…I guess our gadgets need a break too.

Keep On Blogging
Life is a busy place to be and we are all living it daily. Situations arise when we don’t have a great deal of time to blog because of reasons. One thing you can do is to post pictures from every day or perhaps to send up a couple of sentences about what’s going on in life. Blogging is not supposed to be a chore, its something we do because we love it. The process of chronicling ones life can help you organize what you are thinking and doing. It can also help to remind you what you might have done a week ago. Keep this thing called blogging a fun and practical way to connect with yourself and others.
Positivity, It’s Hard As Hell To Be That All The Time
I try to be a positive person in life but there is no way to be that all the time. What we see in the news can really bring you down. You can’t always ignore it either because your friends and your social network are talking about it. Then there are situations you experience in person which impact you in a profound way. Putting a smile on your face can be a challenge. All the bad news in the world can really bring you down and make you question life. Being a beacon of positivity can make one weary and tired. Maybe it’s OK to be a little vulnerable and to be negative every once and awhile. Its hard as hell sometimes and that is OK. Bah!
Bold Prediction About Blogging
Blogging will be around when Twitter and Facebook fade into memory, at least I hope so. Some folks have said blogging is dead or passe but I think its future is still very bright. I am glad to be along for the ride. Keep on blogging friends, we still have many stories to tell and things to share.
Thank You WordPress Community
I want to thank each of you here on WordPress for being a great community of bloggers, authors, journalists, photographers and poets. You are open to people and have an interest in what others are doing. Friends thank you for inspiring me to be a better blogger and hopefully more open-minded. You have welcomed me and you are checking out my serious and sometimes silly posts. Many of you have connected to my blog and are seeing what I am doing and offering feedback, that is humbling. Once again, thank you!
Blog Fame
I am not sure If I would ever want to be a famous blogger…I don’t think I have what it takes to write posts that are on that level. However what would it be like to have some fame because of your blog. My concern is that I enjoy the report with my fellow bloggers and the bigger you get the harder it becomes. I suppose you can’t have friendships with everyone and you need to have a core group of bloggers you have community with. On Tumblr I had 1500 followers at one point and I don’t know if that is ideal. Perhaps the old saying the more the merrier has some merit. Is what I have to say all that important in the scheme of things. Perhaps I should just go for it and not worry so much. Just a few things to ponder as I gain more followers.
