Hmm..
Wiki Defines A Blog as : A
blog (a
portmanteau of
web log) is a website where entries are written in
chronological order and commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning
to maintain or add content to a blog.Strange topic to talk about on a blog. I notice a lot of my friends have blogs of their own. Well I guess for each of us it is either a passing fancy to have a blog or just talk to your friends or maybe the unknown world.. For some it might be a way to vent and to express all our thought and feelings somewhere where there is a kind of free abandon. Nothing controlling what we do or say other than those who read the very blogs we write. I assume if a blog gets too graphic or hurts somebody's sentiments a lot it might get flagged and eventually pulled of the air.
But, I guess from most of the blogs I read I find that it is a personal journal or our lives, our thoughts and our inner most feelings. It is not about saving the world, but it is more about healing ourselves. Most are written as if we are talking to our friends and a majority are in first person.
When you know the person well, or if you consider them your friend, then reading their blogs, good or bad makes you feel something for them, but there are situations which my own blog has shown, where a total stranger reads the blog and gets touched by what they have read. It might light up your day or lead you to a situation where you sit down to think or in my case blog.
It has been a while since I have blogged. Well that is mostly since I have been busy with work and there has not been a topic that has really caught my eye or I felt like writing about.
Today when this abstract idea popped into my head I just felt like sitting down to write a blog. It some how makes you happy to share your thoughts with apparent total strangers or the closest of friends or relatives.
I guess that is why people blog. So that what they feel get read. It might get read by atmost one person, but that really does not matter, because we feel happy when we realize that our thoughts are shared with the world.
PS :
What makes people all the more happy is when we see comments on what we write. It's confirmation that you had that patience to read what we wrote.
