Honestly, I do not know how to answer this question. I think that friends and acquaintances of a blogger will be more likely to read a blog than a stranger. That is not always the case, but I think that knowing something about a person, some background knowledge or past experience, will make you more open to reading something that the person writes and you will connect better. It is the same way with friends who write a song or a novel or create a piece of art. Instead of comparing them to Mumford, Jane Austen, or Picasso, we appreciate them for their talent and ability to create something that we often cannot.
If I do not know you well though and you are reading this blog, welcome! C. S. Lewis said in his book The Four Loves, "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one." So if any of you have any of these four things in common with me, I think that the same thing applies to us.
Love of...
1. God
2. Poetry
3. Books
4. Quotes
well, conveniently, we share all of those loves :)
