How has blogging improved your life?

I write a little blog about things that interest me, art, great restaurants,gardens interior design and many other things. How blogging has improved my life is giving me a reason to really look at things closer, I really want to know more details about what's presented to me, where as before, if it wasn't pressing I could put it away. Daily, I find posts that are filled with thoughtful information or others that are simply a funny story that I can enjoy. How has blogging improved your life?
