I don’t consider “blog” to be a verb, as in I’m supposed to be blogging or I didn’t blog today. For me, “blog” is a noun. It’s simply the canvas on which I paint my creative life.
Did I ever tell you I published a “zine” back when that was the way we creatives put our thoughts and ideas out into the world? Being a “creative” means we MUST create, doesn’t it? Words, artwork, photography. It’s how we participate in the world, how we participate in life. The blogosphere just happens to be the way we do that today.
It’s an added benefit that the blogosphere is a beautiful community where like-minded folks find their way to each other and support each other’s efforts. Which means, if we can’ show up to BE creative this day, we can show up and BE encouraged and inspired.
