REASONS I BLOG

From time to time, I wondered why people blogged. For me, I always thought it was for myself. But this morning, I had a moment of clarity why I did it.

While having breakfast or before or after, I can't quite remmeber which, but I was in the kitchen and I had a thought and unknnowingly found myself talkin to myself. 2nd time this week. Now, I'm not sure if this is normal but I guess it's not tt weird when I'm alone so my sanity's still in check. But somehow, when i feel that there is a strayin thought or something that requires more force in conviction, I'd say it out loud. Not shout at the top of my voice loud, but just aloud. Of cos, I caught myself and thought, hey, hang on. And then I realised why I blogged.

It's easier to read your thoughts in black and white. It's more organised and in some way, more tangible. If you wanna call it, more therapeutic. There's a strange feeling of comfort when you read when you're feeling or thinking. Like there's a connection.

Sometimes, when I'm on the move and I have strayin thoughts in my head, I try to pen down (as lyrical as possible :s) my thoughts. My views. My judgement of myself even.

I guess, it's just that, bloggin is a convenient way to sort out your diary entries if you would. It also beats writing cos seriously, I haven't written for sucha long time, the stamina's just not there. Blogging's my alternative.

So that's the reason I blog. I'm not so sure how blogging for other people is therapeutic cos we're judged on the outside enough, as it is. Seriously, the last thing I need is to invite an audience to judge how I am or to keep a pretense when online. Oh wells, we're all different I guess.
