To Blog or not to Blog? That is the Question…

Am I on the road to crazy?

So over the last few months I’ve taken an interest in the incredibly popular internet phenomenon that is “blogging” (WAY behind the times I know!)  I have stumbled across a number of fascinating blogs, some entertaining in their content, others extremely informative and then the few that leave you thinking “What the fuck is this person trying to say?”

Throughout this little online journey of mine, sifting through page after page of content, anonymously exploring the thoughts of strangers, I have been drawn to the idea of sharing my own warped reality with the great abyss that is “cyberspace”.

I highly doubt that the masses will flock to my little webpage and “ooh” and “ahh” at the awesomeness of my postings but from what I have gathered, although great to be recognised, that isn’t really what blogging is all about…

In some strange way it’s a beautiful platform for personal growth, a diary of experiences and emotions that you are willing to share with the world. In other cases it gives people a safe medium through which they can explore and express ideas that few are prepared to listen to in the hope that someone, somewhere, will read it and be like “Fuck yeah! You rock”. I guess that if you have the ability to reach even one person out there and influence their thinking even slightly through your words then you really have achieved what you set out to do.

Viva World Domination through Blogging
I’ll have to admit that I find myself attracted to those deep, meaningful blog postings that challenge conventional thinking by forcing you to question yourself, life, love, world peace, how Eskimos actually use the loo without getting their asses stuck to the toilet seat and all that jazz… In the same breath there are those bloggers that are just so totally kick-ass that reading what they have to say is nothing short of good ol’ entertainment!

I’m still trying to decide what path I wish to take with my own blog but for now, if you are reading this, welcome to the beginning of something that I am rather excited about!

You should be proud of yourself for getting this far, I certainly am! ;)

Ciao for now
