Blog - Two year anniversary

I just realized that it has been just over two years since I've started this blog.  What have I learned through my blogging experience over the past two years?

I've learned that it takes a lot of time to write a good post.  :-)  I first write a rough draft of what I want to say, then go through it and make the ideas flow.  On the last run through the post, I check and correct minor punctuation and spelling errors.  It does take a considerable amount of time to write a good piece.

I have also noticed that I have a lot of ideas that I want to share with others and this blog provides me with a venue where I can safely share those ideas.  At a later time, I can revisit those same ideas and see if my views and opinions have changed, and if I they are still the same, maybe I can evolve the ideas even further.

The last point that I would like to reflect on is that I am really happy that I have persisted with keeping my blog continuously updated for the last two years.   I have seen MANY people start a blog, and then have their enthusiasm wane after a few posts.  This quick drop in enthusiasms is usually an indication that the person was not very passionate about what they were doing/writing.  As a corollary of that, I would say that I AM passionate about sharing my experiences and thoughts with others.  I believe we can learn a lot from each other, but the only way to learn is by each of us sharing their knowledge.  In my case, I try hard to share my knowledge and experience in this blog.

I hope you continue enjoying my blog.
