Personal?… not
Sometimes people take blog the wrong way. Blog makes readers feel like they know bloggers like they know their friends. It’s actually not. Reading blog is just like watching reality shows where you sympathize with the players in the game. You root for the guy to win the prize or want him to get the girl, whatever the rules of the game are.
Once I had this little notebook with me everywhere I went. I called it a book of collective thoughts. I wrote my thoughts about everything I felt strongly about in the book. It was a very personal book. In a way, the book was my diary although I didn’t write it everyday. It could be articles in a magazine or newspaper. I wrote about movies, relationships, school and politics.
I gave the book to one of my close friend to read. I think I like expressing myself just like a painter needs to paint or a musician just needs to play. I forgot what my friend said after reading my journal. I didn’t care much for feedback anyway. The act of giving it to my friend was enough to fulfill my need to express.
Same thing with this blog, a little less personal here though, I just want to express what I feel. I want to cry out to the world and such. Do I want help with anything or comment on anything? maybe or maybe not. It doesn’t matter.
I just want to write.
