Five Favorite Feelings While Blogging

No kidding, I've had this post sitting in my drafts for, like, almost two years now. Finally decided it's time to give it some love and finish it up today. I'm on a mission to clear out all my drafts this year. Got a bunch of 'em, and man, it gets frustrating, but I've got some cool stuff to share.

This one's a gem, though. I've got this list of my top five favorite feelings when it comes to blogging. Quick heads up—I've made some awesome friends through this blogging journey. It's not really my thing, but for the past few years, I've been pushing myself to step out of my comfort zone, and now I've got some seriously cool blogging buddies!

Honestly, this space and the vibes I've experienced? They never get old. So, here are my five favorite feelings while I'm at it.

To just have an actual platform

I really love having my own little corner to share stuff I love, from my passions and experiences to random things I pick up. It's awesome that there are people out there who genuinely listen or read what I put out. Hitting certain blogging goals, like getting my own domain, reaching a million views, or landing brand deals, feels like a pinch-me moment. I just look at it and think, "Hey, I did that, and no one can take that away from me."

When I upload risky content but it's actually well-received

You know, blogging brings me lots of moments like this. It's not THAT risky, but there are times I feel a bit unsure. It blows my mind that people still check out my blog and read my posts. When I put up stuff like I'm Not Buying These or question if Blogging For Fun is still a thing, people seem to dig it. Some even shoot me a private message to chat about it. I love that!

When people want to buy something because of me

It's such a great feeling, you know? I get really happy when someone trusts my recommendations. I recommended a lot of bargains here and I really appreciate those who buy stuff based on what I say. It's kind of weird but cool that I can actually convince people to try new things!

When people find my posts helpful

Whether we're talking about skincare, blogging, or bullet journaling, I've got your back with plenty of tips. Whenever I share something, it's because I've tried it out myself, and it worked for me. So, why not spread the love, you know? Sometimes, I'll just randomly share something that didn't take much time to write, and when you guys still find it helpful, it feels like giving everyone a virtual hug.

When people leave comments

It's incredible how a few comments on my posts, where people share that they can relate or just say something nice, can totally brighten my day. I really enjoy getting comments and chatting with those who leave them. It's funny, in my earlier blogging days, I didn't really connect with my readers or interact much. I used to feel a bit uneasy about receiving comments. But now, it's one of the best parts of blogging for me.
