Mid Semester Review on Blogging
I like it. I keep a journal on paper normally, but less so while I am at uni because I have to do so much self reflecting that I don't need to turn to my private journal. I love writing. I love expressing what I think. I want to share my artwork with people and my photos. I have so many interests, that I just know I will never be excellent at one thing. But my quest for knowledge in many things will hopefully turn me into the wise old monk that I wish to be. Then I can sit in my cave and deliver wisdom to the masses. Then I will feel fulfilled.
How awesome is the internet? It may have been said before, but I need to express it again. Everything is here for me to get into. I can accelerate my path to monkdom by sitting in my own cave here in my basement home. And I can address the masses from this same spot. I have a voice. I have an outlet. I have a blog! I can be heard!
I believe every-one needs to have their voice heard. If not via the internet then at least in person, to other people. We all need to feel like others are listening to us and that others care about us and love us. We all need to be loved, even the hard arses. By voicing our opinions here in blogs, we extend our presence out into the wider world for others to connect with. We can gather groups of people together with similar interests by bloggrolling. Communities can form and friendships abound. This place is filled with love. How can people say internet worlds are a cold and sterile? Any place will feel alien if it is unknown. With time however, places and names become more familiar, and things start to warm up. It can get so hot sometimes that you feel addicted to your internet connections, and can't bare to be offline.
The next thing I want to do is decide what it is I want to do. This has always been a problem. I know I can do absolutely anything. My efforts ultimately will be directed towards just one thing. What this one thing is is yet to be defined. It appears the internet is fertile for the planting. This land will yeild great crops in the future. When I have sorted through my bag of seeds, then I will return. This is the most massive untertaking of all. The DECISION will direct me from here on in. First I need a good meditative break - probably February 2006. Then we will see what spawns from my rested head. Until then.......

Hey. I know many people (like myself) are saying no one is visiting or commenting on their blog so I’m trying to make an effort to comment on most blogs for KCB295 to see if this blog networking bizo actually works at generating a larger audience for ones blog.
I like your photos :-)
