A letter

I know you don’t expect me, nor am I a welcome visitor in your self-imposed isolation. But this is to let you know that I’ll be there with you next week.  I’m haunted by the stones in that cottage – each carrying a story from the past. Stones chosen carefully for what they represent, got … Continue reading A letter

What makes me different

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

This week Dr. Tanya has asked our opinion about this quote;

TODAY’S QUOTE:

Matt Wolfe

“There’s a lot of information out there for free, so you’ve got to figure out what makes your information different.”

➰➰➰

I think that, that the glut of information available on the internet is a real test for the discerning reader. Not everything that we read on the “net” is the absolute truth or even its first cousin.

How to present our information/ writing in a manner that people are attracted to it is an art. As there are millions of blogs out there, why should people choose to read your blog? The answer in my opinion lies in authenticity.

Writing what we feel and think gives genuineness to our content and people like to read that. Something that they can connect to and relate to is more likely to attract a reader.

WDYS # 123 -A Roundup post

This brought the Ukrainian refugees to mind.

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

The red illuminated sign invited travelers
Come hither, here we have a place for to stay
A beacon signaling refuge,
safety, and a place to rest
A signal for the weary to stop and break the journey
Come now, won’t you stop a while?
