Does Your Blog Have a Mission ?

I used to think that my blog entries needed to be long and filled with sentences that carried noteworthy messages or grandiose humor. These days I am more in sync with being brief. Perhaps my attention span is shorter as I age. Or, perhaps since I never quite know if I have answered the question, "What's your point ?" I have to leave it up to my own sense and sensibilities that the writing is completed.
I don't write about broad-based subject matters. As a teenager and writer during my 20s and 30s, I wrote about things such as:

• love
• money
• the condition of my car
• friendship(s)
• family
• homosexuality
• education
• freedom
• spirit and/or soul
• organized religion
• conformism

In short, my topics ranged from abstract to concrete. My journals often had transcriptions from the texts that I would be reading and I would use the pages often times to confirm or denounce what the writer was saying or meaning.
There are other subjects that come to mind as I review the list that I have made. There are things that I have learned in very early years that I cherish knowing. I understand the parts of a scale and the components of a staff. I can balance a checkbook. I can follow the instructions of a cookbook. I am willing to weigh and measure the food I consume without argument.
I also engage in philanthropy. Mine might be somewhat different from yours. For example, when I am in San Francisco, I make a point of scheduling myself for a blood donation. I could, of course, donate in my own town, but I feel the need in San Francisco is greater. The population is smaller and there are many people who are unable/unqualified to donate. I support organizations that feed the needy (kitchens/pantries). I support an organization the plants trees in Israel and another that gives support to Ethiopian Jews who want to migrate to Israel.
I also keep a small savings account in a credit union in San Francisco's Chinatown. While I have a half dozen accounts with credit unions, this is the only one that does not offer personal checking accounts. If you need to make a withdrawal, you have to go to the credit union itself. The mission of the credit union is to help establish a credit history for people who might otherwise not have access to financial institutions.
My blog mission is actually somewhat fluid. Does it matter? I don't think so.
