This is my first time participating in Fill in the Blank Friday, hosted by The Unexperienced Mom.  I decided to join in this week because I love the sentence we get to complete.

I blog because…

  • I needed an outlet to vent and share when I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2008.
  • I have grown attached to my online friends and love writing for them and reading what they write.
  • I get lonely at home by myself most days.
  • I loooove to write and have so much to say.
  • I enjoy sharing my life with others (I’m an internet social butterfly)
  • Blogging is a great platform for ministering to others.

There are probably a million more reasons that I just can’t think of right now.

Why do you blog?  Why don’t you blog?  Tell me!

    Those are great reasons. I started blogging for my MIL then it turned into so much more. I made so many great friends and found so many encouraging blogs. I love it.

    Hi Melissa!

    Goodness it’s been waaaaay too long since I’ve visited your Cyber Home! You’ve changed so much including your profile pic which BTW is super cute! I NEED to visit more often, you are always so inspiring and I adore your openness and kind spirit.

    God gave me the idea and I ran with it!

    How’s that for an answer? :)

    I blog because…

    I love to write.
    My children serve as wonderful inspirations.
    I want to make it easier for other parents of differently abled children.
    I love to talk about the gifts my youngest child brings to my life and the lessons he is desperately trying to teach me!!!

    good question….

    I blog because….
    my friend Cheryl @The Budge Bunch got me into it!
    I thought it would help with my shyness, i am still a little
    shy and wonder why anyone would read my blog.. but i love all the
    connections and friendships i have made. it is a whole other world i was not aware of !!!
    thanks xoxo

    Tina- Cheryl is a sweetie!

    I blog to connect with people all over the globe, because I love to write, because I have tons to say and no one else is just dying to listen, I love to create, I love to learn, I love making new friends.

    I am sending the following to all those I follow.
    To those on my Reading List:
    Please do me a favor. Would you go to my blog and “follow” me again? Because I changed my URL, I have lost many of my readers. I know you can still hunt me down, but this will make it ever so much easier on you. I will once again show up on your Reader and Blog Roll. I knew this would happen but needed to change to be more representative of who I am now. I think this is the best fix. Thanks for your time. If you have another solution, let me know! Thanky!!!!!

    I blog for the connections. I just thoroughly enjoy getting to know people. There are a bunch of terrific people out here!

    The camaraderie! It is like my own little world that most of my IRL pals do not understand… BUT YOU ALL DO! I blog to connect with others and to know that I am not alone in my struggles.

    Why I blog?
    To meet new people.
    To maintain friendships new and old.
    Because it is fun.
    It de-stresses me MOST of the time.
    I like to vlog.;)
    That’s about it. i am also seriously considering switching to WordPress. It is awfully nice here. I think I will stick to Blogger cause I am familiar with it now. Maybe later.
    Talk at you later,K?
