pondering

I was recently informed that, in order to have a successful blog, one must pick a theme and stick with it; never getting off subject. Good thing that "stuff" is such a broad theme... Or perhaps the broad theme is why a select few read my blog. What is "successful" anyway, when it comes to blogging? Is the purpose of a blog a means to open a voyeuristic window into one's life? Is my blog unsuccessful if nobody reads it? I have certainly learned a lot about myself by having a blog. One thing in particular that I've learned is that I can't be completely myself with an online journal, nor can I stray much from myself. I have pigeon-holed myself into a safe, steph-like persona that will offend no one. But at least I can share fun pictures with family and friends! And that's it; that's the definition of a successful blog for me. I should change the title of my blog to "Steph Spang's Pictures to Share With Friends and Family". But then this entry would have no place in it. This is the stuff.
Pics from Florida to come this weekend.
