Yesterday revisiting my idea of becoming a photographer felt right. Raring to go, I have no idea where my old notes are. They will turn up when I clear out old spiral notebooks.
Today, the spirits (confidence muse team) tell me I’m on the right path. As it happens, years ago a blog was created for the purpose of being my photography blog*. As I recall, some of the details, one is that the blog will not be connected to this blog.
Back then, there was a blogger that appeared out of nowhere, crossing over to several other blogs, I think, through the Blogspot feature, Blogs I Follow gadget. The surge of familiarity had a very who are you vibe. Other troll like things going on then also gave me reason to want that blog separate.
Fact is, once you’ve been online for so many years, concerns like that shouldn’t impede progress. I ended up feeling I wasn’t ready to take on promoting my photography. Maybe that helped dampen my enthusiasm. It can be creepy when you tell a person or persons about your blog, but they never mention they read your blog, (even when they happen to mention content you happen to have recently posted).
Ah, the old days.
That old blog has a plan that fits well with my pursuit of learning photography. It is nice to know I gave the project a lot of thought to have that done.
On the landscape of elevating life, revisiting an old idea is proving to be a source of happiness.
I hope y’all have revisited an old idea that brings you happiness.
Beautiful photo, dear friend. Thank you so much for sharing.

We have learned and grown in the years we have blogged. It does open you up when you share so many personal things and it can be scary. But how wonderful to have the faithful bloggers that support us. I appreciate your love and support this past year when I faced the hardest year of my life. I'm glad you're my friend! Hugs, Diane

DeleteYour hikes are a weekly treat to see what critters and
flowers you‘ve seen. It does a heart good when folks are out
enjoying nature like you do.

I am always rather astounded that I supposedly have over 200 followers on my blog and only get comments from about ten. If I follow a blog, I try to comment as much as I can. If a blogger is worth following, it's worth the interaction. To be honest, there are a few that are more on the side of being commercial and those I don't tend to comment on.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteYou have a very nice blog, always a pleasure to read.
I think there’s a group of bloggers that comment because I see them on a wide range of blogs.
There was a time when it took over 2 hours to read and comment on all the blogs I follow. Many
are no longer active.
