The beautiful Kristen has tagged me for a meme in which I have to give ten reasons why I like to blog. As I still haven't put new batteries in my camera, this seems like a good post for today.
Ten Reasons Why I Like to Blog
- Through blogging I can have regular contact with friends all over the world, such as Megs in Seattle. I have also re-established contact with some old friends through blogging, such as Jenny at Bits and Pieces. I love seeing their photos because it helps me to imagine their lives and to feel closer to them
- I have had the great honour and privilege to discover kindred spirits all over the world through blogging.
- Blogging is a wonderful creative outlet.
- While I am still no technological genius, I have learnt quite a few new technical skills from blogging.
- I have been inspired by so many other bloggers, from those who share similar interests to me, to those who have broadened my horizons considerably.
- I am a big stickybeak and love peeking inside others' homes.
- I find the comments on my blog to be a great source of encouragement. Very few other forms of writing offer such positive feedback.
- Blogging enables me to share things that are dear to my heart.
- Blogging shows me constantly that in every ordinary life there is somebody extraordinary.
- Finally ... blogging is fun!

I think they are all reasons I would give too.
I still have not finished "People of the Book"... I have been too distracted.
Love your list......I never heard the term "stickybeak" before.....I will have to add that to my vocabulary :-)
I have to agree with you on all those reasons! I especailly love finding new people and learning how their lives are. The encouraging comments are wonderful too ;-)!
I love your reasons for blogging, and I couldn't agree more. Thanks for tagging me, this gives me lots of ideas to write about. Karen
Thank you for inspiring me today Kate. This game was just what I needed to shake off the dust from Miss Creative Muse. It was nice to be reminded of why I like to blog. I wrote a little about you too. Thanks again, Karen
I too love the term 'stickybeak'. I wonder if that would be an acceptable scrabble word?
...and the recipes...all those recipes!!
Hugs,
Robin
Rosie and Maggie, 'stickybeak' must be an Aussie expression -- I didn't realise.
It means someone who is overly curious or nosey.

Tracy, Congratulations on being "chosen" and I like your list of reasons for it agrees with all the reasons I like to blog. I like your site and visit here as often as I can. lol!

Kate, Please forgive my mistake, I called you, Tracy because I was just over to her site "Unless the Lord" and guess I forgot that I had changed sites. My comments remain the same though :-) Senior Moment...you know or maybe you don't but I have them a lot! LOL!!:)
