Yes people, that’s right. Four Years Ago today I wrote my very first blog-post. And quite frankly, I had no idea the impact blogging would have on my life. Writing in this here space has enriched my life in so very many ways. Not only have I learned how to βwrite for an audienceβ but, I have also been fortunate enough to cultivate some amazing relationships.
I want to take this time and say, βThank Youβ to every single person/reader that has ever taken the time to read my words, leave a comment, participate in a meme, hand out an award, made me laugh, made me think, even made me cry. And especially to those of you who have ultimately become my deepest and most cherished friends.
I am truly blessed to be a part of such an incredibly, talented, funny, and brilliant, community of fellow writers. I love each and every one of you with my whole heart. I will be forever grateful having been able to share my journey in life with you.
May the next four years be as fun, and as fulfilling, as these last four years!
Happy Blogaversary, Meleah! I've had fun watching you grow and thrive. There's been some drama, but such is life. Mostly, it's been a celebration where those of us who visit have gotten to know you and grown to love you. Here's to many more years of living life and sharing dreams.
Happy anniversary!!! I am so glad you started blogging!
