I like that WordPress compiles my stats and it’s a plus that I can post the summary. It thrills me to learn people from 78 countries have viewed my blog in 2015! I enjoy blogging and am glad that people are interested in reading it, I’m pleased that I have followers. And I always enjoy the comments.
Yes, I’m glad for the stats. For they tell a story. And what they told me this year was a surprise. Although I was pleased to see the attention my blog is receiving, I was a bit appalled to realize how few posts I actually wrote last year!
I told myself, it’s because it was a year spent more by doing things than by writing about them. It was a busy year. However, upon more reflection I had to admit that I wish I had written about more of the things I was doing. The blog is sort of like my diary–it provides me a record of what I do and what I think. It also provides reflection and learning for me. There were many times I thought of something I could write about, but I just didn’t take to time to do so. I gave myself the excuse–I don’t have wi-if here. Yet, I could have written the draft and posted later when an online connection was available.
And although I was busy, there were lots of times that I could have written. So, I’m hoping that this year I will write more. My church (my ‘church search’ post is currently in draft form) had a sermon relating to “more” for a New Year resolution, I like that idea. Instead of saying I will write so many post and then fall short, just resolve to do more.
As always. I welcome feedback back and comments on all my posts. Have any of you had any surprises when reviewing your stats?
