Living in Blog World

Did you miss me?  I took a little time off.  I did have a Leap Day post but I pulled it after tornadoes ripped through my beloved Southern Illinois.  I had started another post late the other night but I was so tired I couldn't remember what I wanted to say.  My brain has been working overtime with hundreds of ideas but no time to get them down.

We should all live in Blog World.  It's a place where no one fears repercussion about what they say.  Honesty abounds.   We get to tell stories, voice opinions and rant.  Some are fun, some are serious, and some are just strange.  But what I like most about Blog World is that bloggers appreciate other bloggers and they let each other know.  They give each other awards and promote one another's pages.  Something that the real world just won't do.  For example,  how many of your friends have a talent, such as, quilting, auto detailing, singing, writing, handy-manning or baking.  And how often do you recommend their services. ...............Yeah, I know.  We are all guilty of it.  Are we afraid of their success?  Are we jealous?  Are we apathetic?  Yes, all of the above.  Another example:  we all have friends that have business.  Do you shop there or use their services or do you prefer to save a couple of bucks and go to Walmart?  Feeling guilty yet?  I know we all do it.  But the thing is, we can always change that.  Final example:  Everyone wants to buy American made goods but what effort do we make to get that accomplished.  We look to our government to create jobs but we ourselves won't take initiative to help stir local jobs by buying products made here. 

That is why I love Blog World.  We look to help each other out and I get to promote my non-blogging friends' talents as well.  In the end, we are all here together.  Let's help each other out.
