Networks, connections and other such wonders...

I have an especial love of that thing that happens when everything seems to work together nicely. I will call it serendipity, for lack of a better word.

To explain what I mean... Say you sell handbags for a living. One day, you visit a friend for tea, and meet another of her friends that takes fashion photos. You get chatting and she asks to use some of your handbags in her next shoot. You get exposure and she finds a willing supplier. Silly example, but you catch my meaning.

Well, I am finding that blogging opens a new world of connections for me. I blog because I love to blog, but more and more, it is coming up in work situations. I have found friends, sources, business contacts and inspiration through blogging, and it doesn't seem to end. I can't believe there was a time when I didn't blog!

Do you sometimes feel like this, or am I just on an insane caffeine high?!
