I think it's so easy to feel you have to portray a fake life - but who benefits from that?! Not only are you lying to yourself - your lying to your readers as well. <br /><br /><br />Here's to not being perfect, I say! ;) xxKristy @ Southern In-Lawhttp://www.southerninlaw.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2500871076078909762.post-45583216824477933222015-06-02T13:42:31.247+10:002015-06-02T13:42:31.247+10:00I was just reading an article the other day - an a...I was just reading an article the other day - an article written by a paper about a blogger and the blogger had just stopped writing but was saying how she didn't want to be a part of the fake anymore. <br />I think that there is a lot of pressure on bloggers to make their lives look like this big ball of awesome-ness and in reality no one is perfect. My kitchen is always a mess, sometimes I run out of time, and other times my allergies get my down and I say I'm not going to blog today and through the to-do list to the window. Sometimes I feel like I abandon the blog but if I tried to power through all the craziness that is life just to get a post out then no one would read that because it wouldn't be a good reflection of myself or the work I want to put out. <br /><br /><br />I like to read real bloggers too - the ones with messy kitchens, failed recipes, and dogs that won't stop barking, and kids who bounce off the walls - because that's the kind of life I live. <br />(minus the dogs and kids - but one day that will be me and I'll be writing about it)Andreahttp://thepineapplecake.comnoreply@blogger.com
