Why I Blog

So it’s been a month or so since I have started blogging. Way to go me! This is the farthest I have ever gone without stopping. Usually I wrote a few blogs, posted them, and didn't post a new one until a month or longer! I am patting myself on the back, but I have sooo much more to do for this blog! I got my number one goal done: keep blogging. But now it’s time to add in some more goals. Here is a list of my goals! Not only are they blogging goals, but personal as well!

Anyway, I wanted to take some time and reflect on why I am so obsessed with blogging. I also wanted you wonderful readers to know why I am doing this.

Blogging has always been inspiring to me. I love turning on my computer and going to my favorite blogs. I have been reading blogs for a few years now, ever since I got my first computer! So for about 5 or 6 years I've been searching on the internet for articles. I love reading inspiration blogs mostly.

So ever since I started reading blogs and people’s writing on the internet, I have felt inspired to write my own. But I never really got into it. I guess I never really thought I could.

Anyway, back to my original subject (I get distracted a lot, don’t I?), I wanted to share why I finally feel so inspired to blog.

Writing has been a passion of mine for years. I first fell in love with it when I was in 3^rd Grade and wrote my first story. Since then I wrote story after story until I reached High School. That was when my huge long block of writing happened. I lost touch with writing, sad but true, and felt uninspired.

I was so focused on school, relationships, work, family, etc, that I never really did anything creative. Ahhhh! I never really thought about it for 4 years, but there was always something missing.

But just recently, someone came into my life that made me felt inspired. In every way possible! I started painting, drawing, and finally went back to my writing. It feels fantastic to be back in my own skin again. An artist needs an outlet, or they will go crazy, haha.

I write to inspire. If I could make any reader feel the way other blogs have made me feel, I would feel wonderful. Writing is a huge passion for me, and I want to use this passion to help others. In any way!

This article turned more into my writing journey than an explanation, but I hope you caught my drift (is that how you say it?). I hope I can help you with my writing. Maybe you learned something new. Maybe I made you think. Maybe you realized you want to do the same as well, and started your own blog. And if I haven’t helped you yet, I hope I can do so in the future J
