Honesty

As I sit here and write this post, I'm inspired by so many things. I realized recently that some of my favorite blogs are not simply blogging about things, but also blogging about life.

In business, they say that we invest in the people that make up companies not the companies themselves. As cheesy as it may sound, I think that blogs and our investment in reading them and following them are kind of the same. I know personally I am far more interested and entertained by blogs where I feel like I know the writer. Blogs that yes, blog about weddings, but also blog about what they did this weekend, what they're doing next week. And how they feel about what's going on in the world.

This leads me to beg the question: what could you ever want to know about me? As a blogger? As a wedding professional? As a writer? Do you want to know about me? I am opening the door now and leaving it open. While I have no intention of blasting my personal life all over the internet, I love the idea of documenting a journey through life and not just documenting all the beautiful things I have found within it.

What do you think?

I agree completely. I for one am more interested in a blogs that are more personal and share aspects of the writer's everyday life.
