Was blog-hopping.
came across a blog.iqa's.
one sentence caught my eye.
"wats d point of having a blog if u cannt express ur tots n feelings".
sumthin lidat uh.
n den it hit me.
its true dun u tink.
c0z it is alreadi in ur mindset dat oh..
i wanna talk abt how i feel abt certain ppl bt den again
dey r d ones hu always read my blog.
cud b a close fren,relative etc.
we dun wanna hurt dem.
we dun wanna let dem noe how much we dislike dem.
we dun wanna cause any arguements.
we juz dun wanna lose doz ppl as frens.
we shud care abt d feelings of others.
so our tots r kept secret.
right in our minds.
our hearts.
so in other words.
we're half d time pleasing our readers.
writing abt wad dey wud like 2 read abt.
im sure u haf ppl hu gif comments like
'hey ur blog is so boring'.
'i dun wanna juz read abt ur everyday life'.
irritating isnt it?
heh.
happens all d time.
bt its our blog!
wads d purpose of having an online journal??
supposingly we're to treat it just like a diary.
u noe.doz we use 2 keep in drawers.
when we spend every nite scribbling our tots n emotions on black n white.
same goes 4 blogs.
we're suppose 2 write down our tots.
our feelings.
ur daily routines n watnots.
wadever dat u want.
n d ppl hu read ur entries.
shud understand.
dey haf no right 2 b mad or watsoever rite?
dey had a choice to read or not to read ur blog.
we nvr forced dem in any way.
contradicting?
take my blog 4 example.
i can safely say i hide some of my tots 2 myself.
seriously.
i still do go abt venting my anger
about sum ppl i dislike.
i still do gossip abt d ppl close 2 me.
bcuz i doubt doz vry same ppl read my blog.
smart move u wud say?
i dun tink so.
tho i claimed 2 b straight-forward recently.
i dare not write bad stuff abt some of my frens.
even if i do,i'd do it indirectly.
no names mentioned.
my style.
or cud b any1's.
safest maybe?
i'd rather tell dem straight 2 d face.
rather den in blogs.
where we can always b misunderstood.
so wads d bottomline?
blogs r different bcuz dey're online.
any1 in diz world can access 2 ur blog.
so dun blame others for d different ways dey react 2 ur entries.
yes its d same as diaries.
bt diaries r strictly hidden in sum parts of ur hse rite?
which clearly shows dat u dun want any1 2 read dem.
even if any1 managed 2 read ur diary,u'd b fuming mad.
bt by having a blog, ur actuali allowing others 2 read ur tots.
so juz b careful wif wad u update.
understand dat der r ppl hu read ur blog
hu mite haf different views on ur entries.
matters of d heart
n ur innermost tots n feelings shud b written on a seperate diary.
nt in blogs.
well.
havin said all dat.
i still do noe of ppl hu nvr cared abt wad others' reactions 2 their entries.
dey just blog abt watever dey want 2.
howells..
its ur blog afterall!
chao.
