Want to know what I’ve been up to?
Hey, lovelies, happy new year!!!
I’ve begun blogging on my older brother’s blog because it basically lines up with the ideas I’ve had for my Real Life blog. I’d worked on that for so long but I just couldn’t continue on my own and, since he had similar goals, we linked up…
Tell me what you think of it at Keeping It 100 because, although we have similar goals and ideas, we’re just beginning to mesh them and do have some different ideals. My vision is for a magazine of enlightenment, of real education in relationships, health and arts. In fact, I created a system called RHEA – read about it below. Here is text directly from the old blog:
Welcome to Real Life
This is an outlet for my vast reservoir of random information. If you are just coming across my blog, know that it is for whoever will benefit from it but it, somewhat, comes from a personal place so if you’re a friend, feel even more welcome.
The goal is to enlighten people’s lives with the real truth and to never shy away from “taboo” or “politically incorrect” issues because in real life, in the real world, nothing is off-limits. If your day is made better, your life saved, your heart guided back to the right track, I’m happy!
Real Life Mag/RHEA
Real Life uses the RHEA system. It is named after a friend I had in elementary school and it stands for Relationships, Health, Education, Arts. Everything you will find here will align with one of these categories.
Which of the “RHEAs” do you love best?
–Relationships
–Health
–Education
–Arts
–Spotlights
Look for these specific traits to be incorporated into my new venture.
My brother is also seeking a magazine culmination but he also feels as if he wants to find a formula to be a pro-blogger. I don’t want to try tactics; I just wanna write the truth I find. I don’t wanna gossip; I want to lure in readers with the reputable quality within my writing pieces. He assures me that I am free to stay as positive as I am as he explores his personality and drags out a little more negativity, even suggesting we add my younger brother and eldest nephew to have even more variety and more of a balanced mood within our posts. He believes he is too positive, especially with my positive additions, that he has to be dirtier to reach the mainstream population of readers. He feels like he used to censor himself but that now, in 2011, he’s just gonna be himself, having such a personality, being such a character. He likens this goal to a manifestation of the likes of Howard Stern and Perez Hilton, just outrageous types. He wants to have an effect on people and bring some passion and action out of them, getting them involved in the blog as well. He’d definitely want a team and want to bring on other bloggers and have reader interaction as well. I know it takes that to survive managing such a big project. It’s not a solo thing and no one wanted to work for me so I’m here with him now…and we’ll see how it goes. Seriously, we have some very, very good stuff. I don’t agree with his usage of profanity and I help him to edit other things but the content is great otherwise. You’ll find things you can’t find anywhere else because no one is daring to talk about it…and it’s all there to teach and encourage you!!!
My eldest niece is here driving me crazy. I love her to bits but I have to go rest just at the sound of her voice. Peace!
