I Blog Therefore I am!

Got this nice tag from Mich. Thanks, girl!

I started blogging without any reason why I should have to, no inspiration, nada. But eventually found out that my/our daily life is inspiration enough for me to keep going and share it to the blogosphere. Lately, it had become soo therapeutic and addictive that I would always keep in mind what should I write about or is something that I am doing is worth sharing. Recently, another reason came up why should I continue to blog, that is earning moolah! Indeed, it has become one of the most rewarding and fulfilling hobbies.

We have a voice;
We must be heard;
Therefore we blog;
Now spread the word!

This meme is based on a recent post that was conducted asking the question “Why do you Blog?” and the rewrite “Why do you Blog? - Reworked.”

The purpose of this meme is to tell our tales by spreading the reasons that we blog to as many sites as possible. We get to explain ourselves, direct traffic to our site and highlight our most important, most representative or most relevant post in an SEO favorable format. This will be a positive experience for everyone who wants to get involved. This will enable you to create a short advertisement for your site that will be spread across the blogesphere; a growing directory of blogs.

This is an open meme. You do not have to be tagged to join in. All you have to do is follow the rules. Please let me know when you have added your site by leaving a comment on “Complete List” with a link to your post. This will insure an up-to-date list, giving you even greater distribution. You then have the option of copying the growing list back to your site.

Rules:
1. Create an inventive post title.
2. Write a brief introduction to the meme.
3. Copy from “**Start Copy Here**” through “**End Copy Here**” .
4. Paste into your post.
5. At the end of the “*list*”, before “**End copy here**”, please add your name, site name (with link), a very brief description (2-3 sentences) of why you blog, and your most important, most representative, or most relevant post (with link.)
6. Tag at least 5 others to participate.
7. Leave a comment and a link to your post on “Complete List”

Hi! My name is Crystal, my middle name actually. I am the author of Choc Mint Girl. I started to blog because I need my own space to 'just write', but what I find here is quite inspiring and I am amazed at how many different bloggers with different approach ended up as great friends and inspire each other. It doesn’t matter what I blog about as long as the two parties find the connection in one another, that will be the best reason of why do I actually blog. I guess my most relevant post is my very first innocent post, Getting Started.

Eds here! The creator of " My Precious". =)I just started blogging this month of September 2007, as a newbie, I've discovered so much in blogging, that's why I really enjoyed it. In blogging, you can express yourself freely, you can sniff some very informative articles & issues, also you can see some updates of your friends, relatives or blogmates! I'm very happy I've started blogging, it gives some pleasure & satisfaction that I can't explain. Well, my most memorable post is my first post ever " how to start?"

One post that I love is one of my first few posts entitled "On Having a Baby" which explains how it feels to have a baby. Alex was a few months old then.

I'm Era of Permanence in Change. This space has become my diary of our life, though not really that complete.

It has become a give and take cycle that I feel compelled to blog whenever I can. The post that is really worth sharing is Oh God! What can I do? It was a 84 quartet poem penned by my husband.
