Two years of blogging

Two years ago in May 2012, I set out on the journey of becoming a hobby blogger.
It was never intended to be a long term thing, it was just an experiment and a "lets see" moment.

So after two years of cranking out posts, what has been the point of it all?

Well here are my personal reflections:

1. I have raised the awareness of my readers of the intricacies with the condition of alopecia.
2. I have become increasingly conscious of my alopecia moments (I always need content).
3. I have caused a few of my readers to think about their behaviours and their lives in a slightly different way.
4. I have captured some memories, that I will undoubtedley forget.
5. I have practiced my writing style, so that I now communicate to my work team in "blog style".
6. I have learned through the comments and emails from my readers, about their lives and choices.
7. I have found a way to funnel my thoughts into something concrete.
8. I have admitted to the world that I am bald and that I am finding a way to live well with it.
9. I have realised writing down an idea takes less than 5 minutes.
10. I am more conscious of how I feel about events.

The blog is read by over 200 people a week, somedays I get over 100 people a day. The readers come from all over the world, not only places where I know people. The comments show that my content drives thoughts and reflections. And the comments show that my writing is enjoyed.

Whether I will be blogging two years from now, who knows?

Where the journey takes me, I have no idea.

A book? A motivational speaker? A bald model?

Maybe. I am just letting it emerge.
