Welcome Back Bloggers

Welcome back to all the long lost bloggers out there. Here’s to continuing to tell your story. Keep on blogging my friends. The blogosphere is better with your continued contributions.

Some Secrets To Blogging

I have been blogging a long time and I have found that the secret to a good blog is content, personality and honesty. People I think want to see something real and I try to be that in every post. Another secret is to keep on blogging…the more you do it the better you get at it. 

Finding community and like-minded people can be a huge help too although you do find some folks who are heavy on the criticism. 

Like anything it is good to make it fun and something that allows for expression and reflection. You might even change the world by your words and images. Blogging is awesome and I encourage you to be the star of your own blog. 

Daily Prompt: Bottle

My emotions and feelings you can find in a bottle. Yeah as a man sometimes I keep stuff there. You know we aren’t always good at sharing and that sort of thing. Putting a cap on that bottle keeps everything inside, makes life less messy. You know it harms the person and the people they love when they keep things bottled up. However it’s what many people do. I even preach its OK to share the spiritual and emotional load with others but I suck at practicing that. Bottles come in handy for drinking stuff too so you can handle your life that way too.

Six Word Story

Happiness and gratitude are very interconnected.

Something About Connecting

It’s amazing that if you have a great many followers that you only seem to get a fraction of them interacting. Sometimes having more following means less connecting. Quality seems to be the ideal whereas quantity is not all it’s cracked up to be. So the more the merrier might not apply in every situation. 

For a personal blogger the rules are different than that of a business or commercial blogger. Making friends is something they both want to do but for different reasons. I have a lot of followers but seem to connect with just a small portion of those who are following. It’s funny how that works.

Thanks Facebook For Letting Me Know About Unfriending

I got this on my Facebook recently.  After un-friending someone they seem to make you want to feel guilty for doing so. You can un-follow, meaning you won’t see their posts but you remain friends which I have done a lot lately. However you just need to disconnect from someone for your own reasons. I think Facebook has been a hotbed and a petri dish for political and religious discussion which is not always friendly. Passions run red hot there and sometimes disconnecting is what is best for relationships and online enjoyment. It is sad when you have to end a online connection but there are plenty more to make out there.
