Blogger Love vol.8: Lessons Shared from Bloggers


Sometimes Often, I learn lessons from other bloggers.  It's one of the reasons that I enjoy blogging...I learn so much from so many of you.  Here's a sample of lessons learned from blogger buddies' recent posts:

As I told Alyssa after reading her post, you never know when and why you are put in the path of someone else's life who needs you.  This post of hers was a great reminder of that:  A Dime a Dozen.  It is also a reminder that we can learn lessons from one another when we may not expect it.

It comes as no surprise (to me) that when Jana has something to say, I fully support it, like this: Something to Believe In , and this one that made me cry:  Exposing Depression's Lies.  Both of these posts are chockfull of lessons.

There is so much honesty (and several laughs) in Jenn's post about Stupid Reasons I've Unfollowed.  What lesson did I learn?  I learned things to avoid getting cut from Jenn's regular reads.  haha!

Another Jenn, another great post, but for different reasons: if you don't stand for something.  She shares the lesson that you don't have to agree with someone to respect someone's point of view.

I enjoyed Ericka's personal experiences and insight when sharing her Thoughts on Quitting.  She also shares lessons learned from her childhood and parents, and I'm guessing many of us can relate in our own personal way.

Nadine is preggers with her first baby, and it's a girl!  This post that she shares is so lovely:  Things I Want for My Daughter.  The lessons that she wants to share with her infant daughter are thought-provoking lessons for all of us.

Steph's lesson that she preaches in  Any Book Worth Banning is a Book Worth Reading is a banner that I want to wave too.

Audrey shares some thoughts and lessons about giving a happy home to canine fur babies in her post The Origin of Dogs.  As a mama to 2 mixed breed fur babies and 3 kitties from the Animal Welfare League, her post spoke to my heart: 

Linking up with Mattie and Lexi for "Weekly Lessons".

  3. Thanks, chica, for the the blogger love shout out! Still being a relative newbie blogger and a person who has been described as a "vault," I'm always hesitant about airing my laundry, clean or dirty, in such a vastly, public forum such as on a blog. For someone who is as protectively private as I am, blogging about personal issue is a big leap of faith and pushes me outside of my comfort zone a lot! I initially started blogging b/c it made participating in book challenges easier, but I've discovered along the way that I continue to blog as a method of expressing myself. It also allows me to be open to other's expressions and to, above all, connect.

    Thanks again for the blogger love! I do appreciate it!

  10. You've got some great posts in here and mostly from blogs I've never visited before, so thanks! I love all the wisdom and solidarity that's out there. Sometimes I find it difficult to find amongst all the #sponsored stuff so you're doing a great service!

I love comments, and I enjoy our interactions. I respond via email, but if you're a "no reply blogger", I can't. Don't think I'm ignoring you!
