I have again been reading a lot of blogs over the last few days and one of them really caught my eye – By Slugs on the Refrigerator. This blog really made me think about why I have actually choose to write a blog. Is it all for me or is it for other people and what is my aim for it?
The first thought that came into my head, was that I was writing my blog as I want to be a writer one day. I have always dreamed of being a writer, and I am doing my writing course so I wanted a place to put my thoughts down and practice my writing skills. But then I started thinking again and wondered if this was actually true. Yes I do want to do these things but is writing the blog, really as simple as that. I don’t believe that it is.
There are many things that are always going through my head, but one thing that keeps coming up is that I don’t want Baba to miss a thing about me or Mr L. I want him to look back on this when he is older and see all the things that we did and see the way that his mummy and daddy thought and felt about things.
I want this to be a place that I can add my thoughts on things, and write my feelings down. However I don’t necessarily want to be writing about sad and negative things on the blog, sometimes I may if I feel that they are necessary but I generally don’t want this to become a negative place.
I want to write about the fun things that Baba and I do together so that when he is old enough we can go through this together and he can remember what he did. I want to be able to embarrass him, make him laugh, make him cringe but at the same time make him have great memories of his childhood. So that when he is having tough times and horrible times in the future he can have a look here and change his feelings, to a better feeling.
I love him unconditionally and forever, so I want this to be a place for him to be able to see that love, forever!
