And Now, The Pressure
I just signed up with two blogging sites. TheGoodBlogs, and Blogtoplist. Now, the pressure is on for me to write more coherent, entertaining comment.
Up to now my blogging has been just for me, but now I feel as if I’ve got to perform, be better than I am, and show the world my blog is worthy of a visit.
Or, I could continue to write as I always have, from my heart, then mind, and let the blogging chips fall where they may.
If no one visits my blog, and I never make it to the top ten, what does that mean? Absolutely nothing.
Visitors and rankings are both welcome, but I can’t change who I am for either. If I did that it would no longer by my blog, but someone else’s whose primary interest is generating hits.
No, not for me. I’ll just continue to mumble along, writing whatever passes through my brain and hope that sincerity of purpose will rule the day.
The greatest artists in the world, musicians, painters, authors, dancers, etc., create art first for themselves. If the world appreciates their work all the better, but they are true to the creative urgings that surge through their bodies. That is the beauty of the creative person.
In a small way, I hope to tap into that creative mindset.
