This Is Why I Blog

When asked why I blog my answer is that I enjoy writing about topics that either interest me, or that I feel passionate about.  I also want to connect with my readers.  Today one of those readers commented and made me especially pleased with what I do with my little piece of cyber-space.

Several weeks ago I wrote a post on the passing of Grand Ole Opry Star Del Reeves.  Today a relative of Dell posted the following.

“I am the wife of Del’s last remaining brother in Sparta, NC. I just want to express our appreciation for these kind words about Del. He really worked hard to attain such success in life and he leaves a wonderful , devoted family in NC as well as Tennessee. Thanks again for these comments which I will print out and place in our Del Reeves keepsake file.”

It is these moments of connection with my readers when I am most proud of this site.
