I try to refrain from telling people to follow my blog, because I don’t want to badger my friends or focus on that sort of thing on my blog. I’d rather talk about art and philosophy and the goodness of things.<\/p>\n
It still makes me happy to get new followers.<\/p>\n
However, it makes me even happier to hear about friends or classmates who read my blog without even my knowing, whether it’s for prof quotes, or to check up on my life or whether they like the articles or poetry I sometimes I post. I think this is because it reminds me of a network of people who care about me and\/or value the ideas and thoughts and images I put out here. It just gives me the warm and fuzzies \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I must admit though, what pleases me the most is when someone whose blog I read and opinion I respect follows my blog. That can light up my whole day, because, as much as I love sharing things with the people I already know and care about, I also love creating content that speaks to people who haven’t met me, and the possibility for new friendships that creates.<\/p>\n
So thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
