A Blog Post Can Brighten Your Day

A blog can inform. It can entertain. It can allow you to share your ideas with the whole world.

This blog was composed on 2009 to serve as a model. That's light years ago in the world of social media.

Since that time, we've seen other social media platforms gain popularity. We've also seen "free" sites limit your reach by forcing you to pay advertising dollars to reach even those who have decided they like your content.

All the while, blogs have maintained the place where you can create content of any length and do it for free. You can include pictures, audio, video, and arrange it any way you like. If you decide to move to another blogging platform, you can take all of your content with you.

Your blog is your "home base."

I have edited the posts on this blog in order to keep the information current and minimize "dead links." The surprise to me is how little editing has needed to be done. Blogs have stood the test of time.

Some see life as a continuum, constantly moving from "Point A" to "Point B." Others recognize the pendulum at work. It swings one way...and then the other. When something seems "dead," just wait. Like the song says, "Everything Old is New Again."
