Blogging Is Cruel!

Some are private and some are public; I am private. Blogging for my kind is one of hardest things to do. You practically attack your private self; it is self-destructive. You feel exposed to those whom you don't know. You leave yourself at the mercy of their judgment, whatever that may be. You subject your 'self' to a challenge which may more destabilize you than otherwise. Masochistic? .... yet you blog; don't you?

I am a very Private person as well, and though i still find it very hard to share somethings with the rest of the bloggers for the same reasons you have mentioned. I believe that it could help me know this society that i am so affraid of and get the courage to face it instead of run from it.

P.S: I am waiting for your feedback about my lattest post...

why do we write if we don't want it to be public?

>>Soumiaz, it may be that it is not the real society and any attemp here would not translate into our social life.

>>a.k.g. that's the question I have been asking myself.

Myself i blog because i enjoy the contact with other people.It feels like people are actuaaly interested in what i have to say even if they do leave negative comments.

Blogging seems to be something serious here, something of a medicine. We're taking it real seriously. It's a daily ritual. People come by and sit in. The day outside is documented, and then the day by the fie, by the computer, with tea, it is down on the white screen, typed and given to away.
