Blog Profile: Meanderings
If you’ve read this blog from it’s humble blogger beginnings, you’ll recognise that this is a blog I’ve profiled before. As I mentioned when I began my self hosted “Blogworld”, I wanted to make a fresh start but revamp a few of the older posts I had done. This is one of those so bear with me.
Meanderings is written by Emma who is a mother to two young boys. Her blog is a mixture of her life as a mother as well as her journey toward a life of more conscious living. In fact, her blog description says “My meandering journey towards conscious living…”
As with all our paths in life, it is a meandering one with moves in the direction she feels she’d like her life to go and moves in directions she’d rather not go. One thing I LOVE about this blog is that it is very much “what you see is what you get”. Emma doesn’t pretend to be someone she isn’t and doesn’t try to portray only her successes. It’s blogs like these that I feel make a real difference. The more real we are, the more we connect with people and help others to know that they’re not the only ones out there struggling.
One post Emma wrote recently that I really enjoyed was My Life in 5 Years where Emma set out how she wanted her life to look in 5 years time. I’m a big one for dreams and goals and having some kind of direction you’d like your life to head.
The blog is simple and uncluttered with the use of tickers to add some visual appeal. Displaying tickers is a nice way to keep track of goals and share your progress with your readers.
A lot of the blog is focused on goals and progress toward those goals. Emma keeps things simple and makes use of her blog for her own purposes. She isn’t striving to have the most read or most successful blog. It’s just there as an invitation for any who’d like to share a little in her journey in life.
To me it’s the perfect example of understanding what you want to get out of your blog dictating how you’ll go about setting it out and how you’ll make use of it. There doesn’t have to be a right and wrong in blogging, as long as you understand why it is that you have a blog and what you want to get out of it.
I hope you’ll pop over and visit Meanderings. I’m sure you’ll be met with a warm reception.

One day…..soon I hope. It will of course include world domination (as well as internet domination lol) so be prepared. 
ROFLOL. Well, to be honest, I am still very much a Queen atop her throne. Why do you think I LOVE blogging so much? It is a procrastinators dream.
Thanks again, Jodi, for all your lovely comments. And thanks especially for just being the giving and caring person that you are. I also will look forward to seeing your five-year-plan… and I’m sure that any goal you set, you will accomplish and, indeed, surpass (as with so many of the goals you have set yourself in the past).
