Well … yeah I do.

I have now been blogging for nearly a year. Some people think it is a bit of a geeky thing (maybe – but I enjoy it!). Others think I must have too much spare time (yeah right – I’m just organised … everyone knows if you want to get something done you ask a busy person to do it!). Even others think it is presumptious to feel qualified to write (again maybe – but I don’t beg people to read and I don’t pretend to be an expert on anything or ever feel qualified to write!) Still others (and myself on occasions) have wondered if I have been controlling the blog or the blog controlling me along the ‘addiction’ thing (actually, I find myself pondering ‘issues’ and asking questions about my faith and watching much less of the trashy stuff I used to watch on telly).

So – I think blogging is good for me personally. And I really enjoy it – so a bonus!!

The added benefits that I never expected have been that I have met new people, such as Gordon, to have coffee and a chat with on my travels; I’ve found ‘old’ friends such as Dave and Matt. The other day I fell upon another friend, Richard Passmore who keeps a great blog called Sunday Papers. I’m often challenged and made to think by people like Maggi and Lucy, and at other times pick up great ideas and resources from those like Jonny and Youthblog.

I just love this blog community thing!
