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.

Hello Monday
Yeah, I am not thrilled about it but we are at the Monday part of the week. Life begins a new and we are at a new week. Let’s see how it goes. Work hard good people and make it the best you can make it.
WordPress Issues- Some folks were reporting some WordPress issues overnight. Sometimes there can be hardware and software failures. I am sure their engineers and techs will have things running better soon. Hang in there. It’s Monday for our blogs too.
Have a great day my friends. Keep on blogging.
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.
Male Pattern Blogging
I have come to the conclusion I need to be connected with more bloggers who happen to be men. My question is are there more women who blog because they are more verbal, expressive, thoughtful? Men do have things to day but we aren’t always in touch with our feelings to say what we need to say. Perhaps its just things I have in common with different people or something like that. There are some cool dudes out there who are like minded and fun, just need to find them. Male pattern blogging has nothing to do with how much hair one has….yeah that was a lame attempt at humor.
Being Positive
As a generally positive person I do have my moments. But I work hard at seeing the better side of life and people. The world has enough negative energy where it can really wear on us. Having more words of affirmation would do us all good.
You have to be intentionally positive or at least fake it til you make it. This is hard for some because of prior life experience. Positive people do have the right to complain every so often because they want to effect change in their lives and community. I even complain about things, it’s just a human thing to do. Being an idealist is not easy because not everyone shares your vision of how things can be. Ones attitude about life in general informs us about where they are coming from. I heard in a movie once your attitude is the aroma of your heart so sometimes your heart has to be in a good place for you to be positive. Sometimes life hands you situations that require complaining. However I think you can complain from a positive place though.
Blogging can provide a great platform for people to share their hearts and minds. Posting positive things is fairly easy if you get into the practice of doing so. Our world is filled with great things you just have to look for them and to filter out the negative. Being positive isn’t easy, it’s a choice, its worth it.
