Why blog and what to blog about?

Having not written in my blog for over 6 months again, I really wanted to make another entry and get it kick started again. I then started wondering what to write about and from there, why am I actually blogging? Is it for my benefit or other people's?

Am I thinking this too much, well maybe!

Some blogs seem to be people talking about social issues / current affairs and trying to challenge the thinking of their readers. Some blogs seem to be a kind of diary. Maybe the reason my blog needs a kick start is because I'm not sure of which kind my blog is.

I think mine falls into the third category though - a bit of both. Why I didn't come to that conclusion earlier who knows - after all the blog is entitled "Blended Girl"! I feel my blog will sometimes be cathartic and a way of expressing myself and other times may speak about issues that I feel strongly about. I have come to the conclusion that this is absolutely fine. Selfishly my blog will be for me - an oultlet from the business of life and some valued reflection time. If other people choose to read my blog, I am flattered and hope that they will find some benefit - whether it be entertainment or a different view of life.

Here goes a new chapter in the life of Blended Girl!
