Blog Reshuffle and Manifesto

I've been blogging for about a year and a half now which is equivalent to dog years in blogland.

  Even though I set up my account years before I actually started, 

I didn't have the energy or confidence to blog.  

I went into blogging blind.

I didn't "know" anyone but these people below.

I didn't have an agenda nor do I now.

I didn't dream of becoming a star through blogging nor view this as a money making exercise. Although I have nothing against those who do monetize their blogs.

I don't know what prompted me to write other than simple expression and an itch.

This might be quite apparent through the eyes of experienced bloggers and blog readers as I don't have a niche.

I am not a mommy blogger nor a corporate climbing ladder tip sharer.

I am neither a fashionista selfie blogger nor a crafty before and after furniture makeover guru.

Blogging treatise, crisis, and suggestions

I was going to post something else today but 

I feel rather deflated and am feeling a bit flat.

I just experienced my second blogging casualty.

Before I started blogging myself, one of my favorite blogs Decorno stopped without any warning at all.

She was the one blog I faithfully followed before I found the bloggers who I read now.

 I didn't understand how blogs worked so I didn't know clicking on the profile might lead to a blog or highlighted words were linked else where etc.  

Total blogging ding dong I was.

Half the enjoyment I get from blogging has been discovering so many blogs I didn't know existed!

I have enjoyed "meeting" so many people I would not have otherwise met.

As we get older, most people do fall into a routine and naturally fall back onto their own rhythm.

I love being able to go and visit, chat with people, and learn little tidbits about all sorts of subjects from all over the world without ever having to get in a cab in traffic to socialize.

There have been times even before and now still where I question myself blogging.
