    I agree with you that what we say is a reflection of ourselves that’s why I always try to share something I know about a topic whenever I leave a comment.
    In doing this, there’s a better chance that my comment will not be ignored and will be posted.
    I’m sure we’ll be meeting the same bloggers and it helps to be seen as someone reliable or insightful.
    Besides, I’ve already taken the time to read the post so why not take the time to contribute something as well. It’s a nice feeling when you do that. 🙂
    Thanks for the tips!
