Because I’ve found that I learn so much more in blogs and blogging than I could ever learn on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or other forms of social media. And let’s face it. Sites like Facebook and Twitter are overrun with bullies, fakers, and posers. Who has time for that?Also,
Also, after reading some of the FB posts and most of the tweets on Twitter, I suddenly feel I’ve lost a million or two brain cells. Twitter has absolutely zero redeemable qualities anymore (which is why I recently deleted my Twitter account), and Facebook has only a few. The only thing good about Facebook are a few common sense, motivational, and funny posts and memes I come across. But that’s it.
But WordPress blogs! Ahhhh! So much better! I’ve found that bloggers are way more authentic and genuine. Bloggers believe in humanity and being human. They aren’t afraid to admit their flaws and shortcomings and, let’s be real, we all have them.
The vast majority of bloggers blog from the heart and are real, and I love that about them! Bloggers, in general, are not about drama and don’t whine and complain about life. If they’ve been through a horrible circumstance, they write about it to acknowledge that, “yes, I’ve been there” and they give their takeaways and lessons learned from the experience.
Bloggers are great at finding the silver lining!
Bloggers can also teach you a thing or two- even better! Because I love to learn.
I find more of the best ideas and tips on blogs than I do any other forum on the internet.
The blogs I love to find and read:
1. Anti-bullying blogs (which is a given)
2. Motivational, Inspirational blogs that uplift the soul
3. Food and recipe blogs
4. Arts and Crafts blogs
5. Music blogs
6. Travel blogs
7. Poetry
8. Health (physical and mental health) blogs
9. News blogs
10. Photography blogs
11. Blogs where people tell their stories
12. Blogs with short stories and flash-fiction
13. How-to blogs
Yep! You could say that I’m eclectic! Bloggers are the best on the internet and, to my fellow bloggers, I’m thankful for each and every one of you. I’ve learned so much from you and I honestly don’t know where I’d be without you! Keep doing what you do best!
