Celebrate: 20th Blog Post

Last week, I celebrated my 20th blog post.  I had an extra Diet Dr. Pepper and said wahoo, or something like that.  Kidding aside, it was a milestone for me, something I’d looked ahead to as a sign of a “real” blogger.

After attending seminars on the topic, I knew passing the 20-blog mark makes a difference.  When someone stops at your site, there is something to look around at, some content on the blog

I’ve found it also means I’ve figured out some of the mechanics of creating a blog.

It means I’ve followed a dream of mine to merge my love of writing with something useful — a way to reach out and possibly bless others that makes my many trials in life have meaning and connect to my passions.

And, something that makes me happy:  It means people searching for a way to reach out to someone might find my blog some day and join the conversation:
