I have actually been amazed at the quality and depth I have seen in some of the blogs. There is a great variety as well. It is clear to me who has the gift of writing and who is doing this because it is something we need to do for this class.
This is not different from the blogs we see on the internet. There are personal opinions written as fact which are then quoted from one blog to another. Links often take you from an article to a blog which does not have any evidence or footnotes listed. Some links are almost pop-culture, advertising done as a blog to make you think it is something real and related to your health (I looked up Thyroid function and got to two blogs that ended up selling their own on line books or products.)
Within the class there are also people who clearly are thoughtful scholars with information to share that makes us all see the world differently.
I also appreciate the humor I found in many.
This is more difficult than I thought it would be, but it is also a bit cathartic.
Perhaps I could get in the habit of trying to write a bit every night. Something I often tell my clients to do. I explain that just finding one thing that you are grateful for or that went well each night can help you center on the positive which has great potential to improve your overall health.
