Blogging, when you are as new to this game as I am, it is easy to become discouraged, I mean you look at the likes of Tavi, Rumi, Bryan Boy, and Tommy Ton, and you see where they are now, and you do not know what they had to go through to get there, it all seems effortless, and I wonder why I have to suffer so, why I have 888 fans and barely get a comment on my blog.
Then I am reminded that there will be days when my best efforts will be ignored and I will be discouraged and frustrated, and days when I want to say “forget” this, for use of a better word...LOL. But it is like little test the universe sends you, like you really want this? Then you must go through these trials, after all, nothing good comes easy.
So, if you are just starting out just know the persevering will go a long way, and that yes, there is a silver lining in that cloud, today NO comments, tomorrow more comments than we will know what to do with.
It all seemed so simple when I went to the movies to see "Julie & Julia"...every day she had a new follower who commented...but I forgot, that's entertainment...xoxo
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that movie...I know right.
ReplyDeletewell like I said, I will just have to stick it out and see where I land...xoxo
Yeah entertainment's not real. I learn not to trust that illusion no more. By the way I love the illustration.
ReplyDeleteNor I...it is easy to fall for it...thanks, it pretty much says it all,huh.
ReplyDeleteIllusions do us no good so better get back to blog no matter how frustrating it is or we'll gain nothing from it.
ReplyDeleteI love that movie also, yes the Haring painting sums it up pretty well, I love "it", not that this makes you feel that way, but I totally get it...keep on pushing all the very best to you all.
