In my previous post I wrote about how I finally think that I have found my blogging voice. There were two reasons that I didn’t mention yesterday on why I needed to change how I write on this blog.
My husband’s gambling problem has made me become more recluse. I have shied away from many social situations to avoid people finding out about the secret that our household holds. I didn’t want anyone to judge me because I have chosen to stay with my husband and work through our problems instead of just giving up. What’s funny is that I don’t want people to judge me, but yet I have decided to spill my guts to the world on the internet. How ironic. Don’t get me wrong, I have never really been a social butterfly and I’ve always had a shy streak, but things have become progressively worse within the last 4 years.
Anyways, as I was on my way out to the post office I decided that the strong knowledgeable Brenda needs to come back once and for all. My voice here on this blog will be the first to reflect that and once I start here, this attitude will surely spread through the rest of my life. One of the goals of a blog is to gain readership and no one wants to read about how much my life may suck everyday. I would hope if you subscribe to my feed you will want to read about how my life is getting better so you may help yourself as well. My blog isn’t only meant for people that are dealing with a loved one’s gambling problem, but I cover how I’m making money online as well. If you’re interested in either subject, subscribe to my blog and come along for the ride.
I touched on reason 2 why my new voice needs to take hold, but come back tomorrow to read more.
Let me know what you think.
Brenda
