It has been ever so long since I properly blogged. Perhaps I have been lacking inspiration. To say I have no time is no different from saying that I have been lazy really. If one wants to do something, by hook or by crook time will be allocated to do just that, no?
Today I am slightly inspired to ask this question... Why do people blog? I notice that most blogs usually have a general theme. Do we really need a "point" to blog? Why do you read someone's blog? Because there is a point to the blog? LOL. Just thought that was a curious question to be asked.
Some people probably wonder what's up with the posting of lyrics of songs... Just in case you haven't quite figured it out already, I treat this blog as a form of an "online journal" to express my thoughts, memories and at times, emotions. When you see lyrics it is likely what is playing round and round in my head or my heart. So technically, the posting of the lyrics is a form of expression on my part.
I tend to blog little of what is going on in my life at present, and have always preferred to blog about what is in the past. Perhaps you would disagree, but I do think that the only thing that remains constant and are certain are things and events of the past (even then, only up to a certain extent since even the past will change with the blurring of memory and the change in opinion). Thereby I see no reason to blog (narratively) about the uncertainty of what is going on in my life now. The lyrics perhaps, are a representation of my current thoughts and emotions. So I share them on this blog.
Blogging perhaps in a sense creates a timestamp on events that will eventually fade from our memories... Some, when relived could potentially give a different point of view? I don't know about most people, but I do like sometimes to re-read what I have written over the years. Whether in a form of a blog, journal or even short stories/poems that I wrote when I was young. It gives me a sense of curiousity and sometimes understanding of the person that I was that made me the person that I am today. Sometimes it even makes me laugh, especially those I wrote about what I felt about my ex bfs whilst I was dating them. I was a little too... illustrative I think. haha. Sure gives me goosebumps. No, I won't share. Don't ask. :P
I sometimes re-read the love letters I received from my ex-es too... I don't think they will thank me if I shared even one line. hahaha. And yes, I keep EVERYTHING. hahahahahahahhahahaha. So my ex-es better be nice to me. :)
I don't actually blog with the readers of my blog in mind (like other bloggers who actually make money out of it does). I write just because I like to look at how I form sentences perhaps? Ha-Ha. But to have readers does give me a sense of satisfaction - people actually like the crap that I churn out.
Hmm. I really don't think I have a point to make with my blog. More of a vent chute I think... Then again, that in a way is a point too no? Hee.
