Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall – Your Blog as a Mirror

When I read todays “Daily Prompt” I started to think. The idea of your blog as a mirror of yourself is really interesting. I think we all reveal more of ourselves through our posts than we are aware of.

The diary-ish look matches with the few posts I write that aren’t reviews but posts about my thoughts on life. I often write to reflect on a certain subject, to get my thoughts in order, do deal with it. Therefore a theme that looks like a diary is a great match. Continue reading
