Why I Blog?

Why do I blog? Week Eight for Welcome to My Reality.

That is a good question. Until I started doing these prompts, I had never blogged before. I had read the blogs of other people, but never really considered doing one of my own. I was intrigued by their lives and their opinions, yet never really thought about putting myself out there.

I will admit the prompts help. I am not starting from a blank space. I like reading the prompts and considering them, mulling them over and then letting my mind wrap around what I want to say. And I do have something to say. I am no longer that little wallflower who shies away from sharing her views. The little girl who worries her ideas are crap and worthless. I have developed a backbone, of sorts. I have developed a confidence and found my voice. My writing has helped me do that. I have learned that writing my thoughts and ideas down helps me to figure myself out. I no longer keep everything down deep inside. Being able to blog lets it out.
I have found that sharing what I think allows others to read and share their own thoughts. From that, blossoms that feeling that I am not alone in all this. Not everyone may not agree with my opinions, and that is fine. But this is my blog and I want to share and connect on this level.
I am loving this.
