Speak Your Piece
TODAY’S QUOTE
” What I’m really concerned about is reaching one person.”
— Jorge Luis Borges
Written in response to Tanya’s prompt
This quote invokes a few thoughts. Blogging, for me, affords a way of reaching the person(s) who may want to read my message. I realize that some topics may not apply to everyone but it’s okay. Knowing that at least one person read my post makes it worth the time. If I can make someone laugh or smile, then great!
Also, I like to pose thought-provoking and fun questions to get input about what others think about a specific topic. It is always interesting to hear what other’s opinions are about the same topic. Hearing feedback from others is important. My hope is that people start thinking about the possibilities for themselves and not give up. If I can give someone that nudge to try something that they have been thinking about, then I have succeeded.
Additionally, I find blogging entertaining and fun. If I can make just one person smile or if I change the outlook of someone’s day, then that is gratifying. When my posts have a positive effect on the reader, it makes me smile as well. Even if the reader doesn’t relate to what I’m writing about, it might spark up new and interesting conversations.

I appreciate that, Louis! While I try to motivate others, they are doing the same for me
Thank you.
Yep. Blogging has that effect, doesn’t it? Even the everyday engagements are fun. Always fun to know that someone’s consumed your content and is reacting to it. Maybe we writers are performers at heart.
I didn’t think about the performance part of writing. Nice way of looking at it, I like that! Thank you, Stuart!
