First post and a definition of 'reflection'

I have been considering doing a blog for a while, though never did. Why?  Well, I didn't think anyone would be interested. Then this afternoon, I decided to go ahead and set up a blog anyway. I don't care if anyone reads this blog or not. It isn't for anyone but myself! My life is not interesting or exciting by any means. However, it is MY life, and I live the way I choose to. I have my own opinions and thoughts that many may agree with and many probably won't agree with. That is THEIR prerogative. I don't go around telling other people what to think or believe, and expect the same courtesy to be shown to me in return.

I looked up the definition of the word 'Reflection'   In my opinion, 'Reflection' is an excellent choice for a blog title!
