OK, so in the past I have tried doing the updates and insights into my life. I found that getting everything out through writing was somewhat therapeutic, and some of the things I do and some of the thoughts that I have are somewhat interesting.
However, my whole outlook of exposing myself through blogging changed when I ran into an old friend and he asked how I was doing with a concerned look on his face. I said fine, with a questioning look on my face. Sensing the unsure response, my friend explained that he had read my blog and was just concerned. I went back and read some of my entries and there were some revealing things, things that maybe I wanted to keep to myself. There were also entries talking about my friends, not in a bad way, but perhaps some people do want there lives exposed.
So I tried just giving updates about what was going, no insight, but that just seemed boring. Then I tried being overly philosophical, all insight, not related to any part of my life necessarily. Sure there were some fun entries, but after a while I was just reaching. At this point I decided to stop blogging.
However, I read an away message the other day that made me want to say something. An assertion was made that I thought was just plain faulty and needed correcting. Every once in a while I see conclusions jumped to that I think are just plain wrong. Therefore, my new blogging approach will be to correct these fallacies. I will try not to get too political.
