Remember the day.....?

I just had a minute to talk with Kenia, the manager at McAlister's. We were talking about writing blogs, and finding the time for same.

We talked about the impact of good, happy employees who have the heart to serve. How patrons will keep coming back just for the service.

We talked about the concept of being a part of a "blog community". Kenia told me how tight her time was because she chooses to spend as much time as possible with her baby. I work a schedule similar to hers, but my kids are nearly grown.

Here's a thought for those of you considering writing a blog. Some people use blogs to document their lives. A written photo album, if you will. Writing down what happens is a sure fire way of remembering events the way they really occurred. I would love to remember my thoughts from the day my son first walked, spoke or, later, confessed to liking a girl.

So write, people. It strengthens your communication skills as well as a myriad of other beneficial things.

If you write a blog, please share with me the URL, so I can visit and see your life through your words...

I am not so sure if I could write a blog. I honestly don't think my life is that interesting. Although, I do love to scrapbook which in a sense is a blog, in a book, with photos. I will admit that when I am finished with a page I can't wait to show my fellow scrappers the finished product. The photos and journaling tell a story of my family in an artistic way. I love the ohs and ahs when they see the photos of my family plus it brings back memories for me of when my grown sons where little and needed their mother much more than the do now. I have always loved writing but guess I didn't know where to start..well, I guess I just did.

You're so right, John .. it does strengthen your communication skills but it can be so much more than that. I've experienced some of the most wonderful moments in my life via blogging ... from the eureka moments I had from random, stream of consciousness blogging to the great connections forged in the comment sections ...

Yup, yup ... love to blog!

Thanks for the invite, John!
