To my younger followers….folks in their 20’s and below, I thank you for following. I hope we are learning about the world we live in from each other. It’s awesome to have the opportunity to blog in a diverse community. I consider you peers, friends, equals. The fact that you follow a dude in his mid-40’s (45 to be excact) is remarkable. Creating a safe place to exchange ideas is important you know. Keep on blogging.

Dear Business and Spam Blogs
I am not following you, its not worth following me. There is nothing of great business interest you can glean from my blog. I am not worth your time.
Not Your Friend,

Rambling About Random Thoughts
As far as blogging and most things random thoughts are great. They are the best posts I think. I have a lot of random thoughts that make their way to my blog. Never be afraid to be spontaneous as far as posting goes. Some of the best things we can read are inspired thoughts based upon life and the things we encounter daily. That is why I love to blog both on mobile and the desktop because you never know when a random thought can develop into an idea and a post.
Hello Good People
How is your Sunday going? I have been lazy all afternoon after getting home from church. We went to get some lunch afterwards at our favorite Chinese/Japanese/sushi place. This has been a great day of chilling. I created a new blog in order to create a closer community with people from Tumblr I really like. These people are a part of my blogging experience and I wanted to include them in my blogging on WordPress and in other places. I could also use that blog for other purposes too. Sometimes you have to start fresh online. So to everyone at Tumblr and WordPress I say I appreciate you all!
My Appreciation Of Women Who Blog
I am a 45 year old man which you would think I would be inspired by sports, cars and that sort of thing. Those things I do find interesting but when it comes to blogging I gravitate to websites featuring beauty, fashion, cooking and “girly things”. Yes I am not their target audience, but I think inspiration can come from surprising places. For me I enjoy the company of great women in my life, I find I relate better to women. Online this extends to my appreciation of women who blog.
This is not to say that men can’t get just as geeky but I just like the way women communicate online. I was raised by some great women so I am comfortable in learning more about the things women like. Visually the color and content of women who blog is very interesting. In my mind it transcends the traditional gender interests into something unique and personal. Yes my dude card was handed in years ago. I am not ashamed of that.
Perhaps its like that movie with Mel Gibson “What Women Want”. Gibson’s character had to understand women in order to speak to them in advertising. All men should seek to understand the things women like and what they think in order to have a better relationships and friendships with our wives, mothers, sisters, aunts, friends. There are differences and knowing what they are can build bridges of understanding and reduce conflict.
Here on WordPress its cool to see entire blogs focused on things that excite the author and makes them want to share it with everyone. I have always thought that fangirls are a great force for good in the world so I want to emulate that a little in what I do. So I look forward to exploring some great blogs written by some passionate people who just happen to be women. Thank you for putting up with a curious dude.
