Over the past few days, several people have asked me "Why do you blog?". (It seemed a natural question since my blog is new.) So far I’ve just given a one sentence answer and escaped. Can you guess? "To enhance my life and others"!Anyway, I couldn't get the question out of my head. Now, here I am, posting the elaborate answer.
#1. In order to write things, there's a fair amount of background reading that I need to do. In the end, I too learn a lot about the subject.
#2. I want to improve my writing. I spend a lot of time writing, and even more time erasing! The right word would be, refining what I write.
#3. I like to know what others think, about areas that intrigue me.
#4. Putting thoughts into words, puts things into perspective.
#5. Freedom! To write what I want, at my own pace.
#6. The simple fact that I am reaching a global audience. Every time I look at the bottom right panel, it puts a smile on my face.
#7. I like to make a difference -for the better! If my entries, help you enhance your life, then I've achieved the goal i've set out for.
If you are not a blogger, I hope these reasons motivate you, to start your own blog. Do you still think its a waist of time ?
If you are a blogger, why did you start your blog ? Are the reasons, same as mine ?
