Simply a place where my thoughts on life are discussed including self-improvement, politics and religion.
Describe the main purpose of your blogging, what are you trying to accomplish?
My insights are only important to me; however, they might provide some understanding to others. I like to discuss possibilities, self-determination, life-long learning opportunities.
What blogging platform do you do and why?
Blogger. I started with blogger before it was part of the google family but stayed with it since it was incorporated with my email service of choice.
What do you blog the most about?
I blog about my thoughts. Since my thoughts are disjointed and rambling, what I write about today will not necessarily be the topic of tomorrow. Conversely, if I am really dealing with something I find extremely important, my thoughts may stay with the same topic for a week or two.
What kind of blogs make you angry?
I've never found a blog that makes me angry. I have wondered, though, how someone could take the time to make a blog and have nothing but a couple random sentences to show for it.
