Other Blogs Make Me Smile :)

I came across a few awesome blogs on my quest for the perfect topic. After my long search, I decided that the most fun and entertaining blogs to read were the ones about things people liked and hated. Being me, I figured that I would rather write about things I like. So, here I am with my first post, about other blogs. Because that is the first thing that makes me smile, just reading about other people's experiences.

The first blog I saw was called Let's Overthink This. This was also my favorite blog, mostly because of the title and tagline. The tagline is a quote, "In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you" -Leo Tolstoy. I love this quote because it makes me think about all of the things that we miss because we are looking at or doing something else. Don't you hate how a friend or family member will interrupt you and say "Oh, wow, you just missed the coolest thing!" It may not show on the outside, but I am always wondering just how cool was the thing that I missed or how many inside jokes I would be missing out on because I didn't see it. But, enough on that, the point is that this blog made me smile.

After a lot more searching, I found another blog that fit my topic. It is called Holiday Matinee, and is by Dave. My favorite part about this blog are the pictures. All of their posts have a picture that perfectly fit their topic, or at least all of the ones I have seen. I hope that I can find cool pictures to put into my blog posts, but that might start next time. It is a process, blogging, and I just hope I can get up to speed on it!

The last blog I found was called Tiny Buddha. The author, Lori Deschene, perfectly captured what I want my blog to be about in one of her posts. She wrote about 50 things to love about life that are free. All of my blog posts may not necessarily be about free things, but they will be about things I love. She talks about family, friends, and just all around great stuff. All of this stuff will be what my blog is about, because the things that I love are so important to me and because they are fun to talk about. So, now I proudly present to you my blog: Thing That Make Me Smile :)
