One thing that is great about the internet is the ability to connect with others no matter where you are. Whether you live out in the country, or in the city, whether you're housebound or not you can connect with other people who think like you and people who challenge you to think in a new way. Seeking out bloggers and their blogs can help you in many ways.
Reading personal, motivational, or spiritual blogs each day can encourage and motivate you to be the kind of person you strive to be. By reading other people's daily lives and stories, you will be encouraged to continue on your path. You may also be encouraged to embrace a new path that you hadn't thought of previously.
Commenting on blogs can help you make new friends all over the world. Usually, when you comment on a blog, it gives you a link back to your own blog, plus gives the owner of the blog your email address. You never know what can happen after this exchange of information.
Reading a blogger's life story can encourage you to share your own. You'll realize that not everyone is perfect, and that you're fine just the way you are, and you are ready to share your own life’s story, imperfections and all.
As you develop favorite blogs to follow, you will become even more encouraged as you see their lives unfold before you. By reading about their successes and failures too, you will be encouraged everything will be exactly as it should be.
Reading other blogs can give you ideas about what to blog about on your own blog. Not to say you should copy someone, but if another blogger writes about their experience with disciplining their children you may be encouraged to blog about the same thing.
When you read other blogs pay close attention to the lessons that you can learn. You might learn that you don't believe the same way they do, that is okay. You might also have your mind opened to another way of looking at a particular issue and that is okay too.
