blog friends make the blog world go round #2

Hi everyone! Alely here from oh, sweetlee me. I am so honored to be here guest posting for Jozen whilst she is away basking in the sun on some tropical island with her adorable family. When Jozen asked me to guest post for her I was very excited! I normally post about everything and anything, from family, faith, home decorating, food, traveling, crafting, and photography. This guest post will be about how thankful and blessed I am for having met so many wonderful, sweet, creative and very inspiring bloggers whom I have to say have become my bloggy friends. It use to be back in the day if you wanted to keep in touch with a friend or have a pen pal you would write or type a letter.



then you would sign, seal and deliver it via by mail

But in today's world one can meet and keep in touch with so many via the world wide web. And in the push of a button you can send and receive a message by email, if you tweet by twitter, and if you blog by comments. It all happens instantly and naturally friendships just form.


I truly look forward to their comments as they look forward to mine. I also know as each blogger builds more followers and friendships some friendships may go astray, but that' ok, because in reality friendships go through seasons and times and blog friendships will go through the same. So for the here and now, I'm very thankful and blessed for whom I have met thus far in this blog journey. I hope all of you bloggers are enjoying your journey as well.


A huge thank you to Jozen for having me as her guest today! She is a sweetie and I do hope she's enjoying a shaved ice for me with vanilla ice cream and azuki beans!
xo, alely

this is so true. i started my blog as a way to stay in touch with family and (real life) friends. it has blossomed into so much more than i ever bargained for and i have connected with some of the most genuine, fascinating women in the world. truth be told, bloggers are pretty amazing.

You are so right! I didn't realize friendships could be cultivated through the blogsphere. A pleasant surprise and new support system. I cherish my new found blog friends- which includes you, Alely!

so true. I feel as if blogging has helped me keep in contact with friends and family we don't see as much since moving, and as a bonus become a way to meet new people -- like you!

you could have posted a globby bottle of white out too next to the type writer. i was trying to explain to my 9 year old about how type writers worked. my dad used to type at late hours of the night while i was trying to go to sleep. it would be cool to have one but minus the white out work...

Oh, we were stationed in Hawaii and I totally remember seeing shaved ice with azuki beans (a little shack on the north shore sold it)! I never tried it though.
