Good Friday afternoon. I realize Ive been quiet lately. After a week of such drama it all fell silent. I apologize. I am here today because I need to be, but among other reasons, I was invited to play along in a blog hop that is sponsored by The Domestic Witch. What is a blog hop you ask? It is a rather fun and interesting way to put you all in touch with other folks and new information. Kind of like a poker run but with blogs instead of bars and information and friends rather than a poker card. The end result is not to raise money for any event, but to raise awareness. Yours and ours. Awareness of information you may not have known, and to bring the wonderful blogs we are all acquainted with to the table. Especially since you may follow some I dont know about, and I may follow some you don't know about. Are you ready, let's go along for the ride and meet some new and interesting people.
Now, like any good campaign, there are a few rules. But we all know that rules are not always bad. They give us structure so we can all know the objective and strategies to coming out in the same spot! Today I am tagging As the Phoenix Rises. If you are interested in playing please hop over to the The Domestic Witch and have a look at the rules.
The question for this week is: Why did you begin blogging?
My Answer:
I really put off blogging for a long time. I didn't think that I could write every day and keep people interested. My friends all loved the posts I would put on facebook about the antics of my children and grandchildren and kept telling me I should write a blog. Eventually I realized that my entire facebook wall was becoming filled with posts about the daily goings on in my home. Some related to family matters, some related to spiritual matters. But the posts were growing longer and longer. Finally at the urging of some good friends, I gave in and began to blog.
My blogs vary. Much like my facebook posts varied. Sometimes my posts are very pagan related and very much about my journey, but mostly they are about my life. My life as a Mom. My life as a Nana. And also my life as a Witch. Recently they have been about Gay Rights awareness and how the Gay Lifestyle has affected my world. I am sure they will be about the pain and the agony of loss and the strength and will of healing as well. When I write I tend to write what I feel so most of my blogs are passionate and personal. There are of course the blogs that are humorous, but also personal, such as the blogs that are usually about my daughter and her antics. If you are curious, go back to the one about her deciding to paint my house purple! You will understand.
Thank you for taking the time to visit today and please play along and follow some the links in my post and the others to see what a wonderful journey you may go on and what fantastic things you may learn! Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping in today!
Love, Light and Blessings!
