1,108 weeks today


šŸ’» The blogging journey continues

Today is 1,108 weeks since I began blogging.

Publishing my first post in July, 2003, I wasn’t necessarily thinking about the future.

However, it was something that I knew would become a part of my life and wasn’t there just for a short season.

It has evolved over the years in many ways, and it is even more so now a personal journal rather than something that I’m doing just to get likes and follows.

There’s nothing wrong with that though, if that’s you, and of course, I always appreciate the feedback very much indeed.

What I’m saying though, on a personal level, is that I’m not blogging to become famous or to make a name for myself.

I think, especially among young people, the desperate desire with many is to make it big in social media.

I sometimes read that a particular person is a famous ā€˜social media influencer’, but I’ve never heard of them before.

I read a few of their posts and I’m still not really sure of why they are famous.

There are many reasons to blog, but the most important thing is to enjoy it. 

As far as that’s concerned, I’m as passionate now as I was more than twenty-one years ago.
