I’ve been posting on almost all of my blogs tonite. The sun is coming up and I’m still not tired. My son says I’m nocturnal. I guess…I just had a lot on my mind.
I just checked my subscriptions for both my e-zine blog Embrace Your Fantasy and this blog and I’ve noticed that some of the oldest subscribers for this blog have kindly opted out. I can understand that. Those who have been reading my blog, if there are any of them left, since I began in 2003 have noticed a radical change in my belief system and lifestyle.
Ofcourse I had to change…who stays exactly the same over the course of five years? But my changes were significant because back then I was deeply religious and dependent on my friends, religion and my pastor for approval of my life choices. I now depend on neither and I am quite happy with who I am..but..I guess people can’t take the change. I don’t mind.
Have you ever noticed that I don’t do what most other bloggers do to market their blogs? I don’t comment on blogs to increase my readership. I don’t join in on internet social circles to stay in the popular group of bloggers. I don’t really care.
I do care about using this blog as a catalogue of my growth…It is and will remain to be a tool for me to vent and try to figure out my issues, express gratitude for my life and record the good and bad moments. I figure one day I can use this blog to write a book about my journey. Who knows what will happen but for right now…I believe those who will connect with my message and my life story will find me somehow. Those who won’t…I bless and send them on their way to find someone whose life more closely resembles theirs. Who knows where I’ll be in five more years but hopefully, you’ll come with me.
If you have connected with my blog in secret and have never reached out to me personally, I encourage you to do so. Just like I am open with my friends in giving encouragement and inspiration and counseling, I am open to you. Feel free to send me an email to say hello.
Thank you for reading.
