Community

The entire point of blogging is community, at least I think it is. A recent look at my stats made me realize there are more people reading this blog than blogs that I read. This is a little out of whack. So if you stop by here from time to time or all the time, let me know. I would love to return the favor and visit your blog from time to time or all the time. So let me know and we can be one big happy online family. Maybe one day I will have a blogroll on the side there to make this sort of thing easier for you all. Thanks for stopping by. free mature sex

Sorry for the lack of blogging of late. It isn’t that I have had nothing to say, I just haven’t had the desire to say it. I would much rather play with my little Bella Ruth while she is awake and by the time she is asleep I have little energy left. Maybe this will be the great turn around to more writing. I hope so, I do miss you dearly.

Meet My Friend

I am very excited to introduce the worship pastor for Bridgeway Church, Jeremy Gallegos

. He recently just earned his bachelors degree and has finally decided to engage in the world of blogging. He is sure to have some very interesting posts and hopefully some great conversations will follow. Knowing him personally, I am extremely eager to hear his thoughts and to be able to engage with him on a regular basis and pick his brain (I think he is smarter than me). So head over to his blog and say hello for me.

P.s His first real post

is a good one.

A Better Blog

May 1, 200912:05 am3 Comments

While surfing the world wide web, I came across an article about being a better blogger. I looked at for all of five seconds, not because I am an awesome blogger and need no improvements, but because it looked really long and boring. In that five seconds I did read one point that I thought was interesting. The author said that posts should always have a picture. Looking around my blog you will notice I do not or at least did not agree with that. In fact for a while I gave up even putting pictures in my posts. It seemed that I never found pictures that I liked or they just made the post and in turn my blog look cluttered. I like things clean, in case you haven’t noticed. I haven’t not noticed a special attraction to posts with pictures in them, but I suppose it makes sense. I do love a friends blog

that almost always has a picture from Getty Images, but a post without a picture is no less desirable at least on a conscience level. So I guess this brings me to my question…

Do you always have a picture in your posts, and if so why and where do you find them?

Social Networking

With all of these different social networking sites out there these days it begs the question are they good or are they bad? A question that has been asked a lot and has probably been answered by people much smarter than me. But in the past few weeks, I have heard several people voice their opinions that these sites are in fact hurting our social lives. These people have brought up some very valid points: people are no longer meeting face to face, people only know what is going on in their friends lives because of a blog or even a very short 140 characters. We don’t even talk on the phone

anymore, we simply text. But are all of these things as bad as we make them out to be?

I would agree that if I won’t go out to get food with my best friend, because I would rather just read about their life from their blog then something is probably wrong. The whole point of friendship is interaction and fellowship. But what about a friendship where distance makes face to face time unavailable. Through all of these social networking sites people are now able to keep in touch with the lives of friends where face to face time is impossible. Is that so wrong? Through Twitter it is possible to find out what people are doing everyday. I can’t even say I know that much about friends that live minutes away.

Nay sayers also neglect to take into account new friends met via social networking sites. It is almost implied in the name that the point is to create a network. Why would it stop at people we already know? These sites are a great way to find new people who share similar interests or goals. If people can meet, fall in love and get married, can’t I make new friends?

Wow this is a long rant… sorry. I just like this stuff.
