Blogging without blogging

It seems that very often when I sit down to write a blog entry I write a really long, open, honest one...then I decide I should post it in my private journal instead.

 

Just did that actually. I really enjoyed writing it, and perhaps in a few months or years I'll enjoy reading it again. I didn't post it not because it was particularly personal, just because it was so long, so self-involved.

 

I mean blogs are supposed to be self-involved aren't they? Or at least I would assume that it's okay to be self-involved in your own blog. Yet lately every time I write one I feel like I'm being arrogant or bragging. Like I'm saying "Look at me! Look how great I am!" Or alternatively like I'm just asking for attention in general. "Help me with my problems." "Feel sorry for me."

 

Blah, just seems a bit unseemly.

Eh, of course you should write long and honest blog entries... :) Especially when there's something you've been thinking about a lot, or that's been bothering you. Anyway your entries are always enjoyable to read. :D

Aww thanks, Tob! :D

 

That means a lot to me considering that you were one of the first people who ever read and commented on my blog. LOL, if you haven't gotten sick of it by now maybe they're not so terrible after all :P
