(Continued from the title) …why you blog? I so want to hear from you as far as your beginnings with blogging but also why you continued and still continue.
For some, blogging may mean an additional income, even the only income: 
Not for me (the general advise is for me to hold on to my day job…).
For others, blogging may be the source where they can express their skepticism, even sarcasm:
Not for me (as you all know it by now…)
Why do I blog?
When little, I was a talker. To the point that years later, my maternal uncle didn’t stop likening my speech speed to a “Kalashnikov” (he is not an arm-carrying, nor gun-supporting person but merely noticed the resemblance as far as fast moving capacity…). As for my late years, I am known to listen much more (I realized too many others around me had and continue to have much more meaningful things to say). Writing, I suspect, replaced my eagerness to talk. As for the meaning of talking, it never left my side: a concrete means to communicate, to converse (although, it is mostly a one-sided dialog what we do). I blog because I very much enjoy the feeling of connecting with you on any topic. I love to connect with you. Period. The communication culture of my place of birth is one of passionate contact; talking with hands and feet, mimics and gestures galore, hugging and kissing. While writing a blog lacks those special flavors of human-to-human interaction, it surely is the only possible way for me to make believe all of you are here, actively present, and foremost: listening to me with a mimic, gesture, or a hug, waiting to come my way. Just like story-telling times probably all of us have shared as a life experience at least once. We unite. We communicate. We converse. So, I am eager to support the following claim regards blogging: 
An integral question I ask myself non-stop is how to make such conversations worth having on the blogging table. And for this joint exploration, I reach out to you today.
I began by inviting you to share your thoughts on why you blog. I am ending with its twin question because I wonder what your deliberations on it are and whether you would like to have a conversation with me on this two-fold question…
Wishing you, as always, a wonderful week and looking forward to your visit on next Sunday. May you have wonder-filled days in-between.
