When you blog, it is a time for YOU, to get YOUR thoughts out there. While feedback from others is important, don't get hung up on writing the blog the way you think others will want to read it. Just write what you feel, what is important to you. Don't worry about trying to please the rest of us.

This is excellent advice. And I've found that when I write for myself, oddly enough, more people relate to it and end up commenting on my entries.
People like the truth. Write it.

Putting Yourself First Isn't a Bad Thing
Sometimes, you've got to be a little bit selfish and that's not bad. Putting yourself second to everyone else makes your goals suffer and it makes you resent them.
Put yourself first. Take care of yourself. Then you can help others. Don't let what others want become an excuse to not get what you need or what you want.
You'll be able to help others better if you're taking care of yourself!
Love starts with loving yourself. If you do not know how to love yourself, you will not know how to love others; and if you do not know how to love others, you will not know how to love God. God Bless, Vic.
