I have discovered that good news about the lives of people I have never met but whose blogs I follow make me happy. In the past week, I discovered that one blogger is finally in a relationship that makes her happy, another one finally got pregnant after trying for several years, yet another one had a baby, one is getting her first scholarly article published, and one more has gotten an offer for a post-doc that she wasn’t expecting to get.
Blogging is great because it gives you many more people to care about and feel happy for.
