Go Backpacking: Yesterday I discovered the Round the World blog by Dave, which is very inspiring. He is writing nearly every single day… currently from India. I like his reflections on life and traveling. And he offers very useful information on how to plan a trip carefully, no matter if you will travel for 1 month or for several years. (0)
Squam Art Workshops: I did not made up my mind yet, but is there anyone from Montreal attending the Squam Art Workshops event? Some of my favorite bloggers will be there, and i’m sure there’s gonna be electricity-love-and creativity in the air! (0)

Infos

























I know what you mean, but I think sometimes become afraid to share bits and pieces of their intimate life. Maybe they’re shy in real life and it’s still evident online. Or maybe they just have some secrets in the closet that they’d rather not share.
You see, I like to keep it like this:
“There are two laws in life. 1. Don’t tell everything.”
There are some things in life that belong to me, and only to me. Whatever I am willing to share, I do so freely (e.g. on my weblog). Whatever I am not willing to share, is because it is damnit not others’ buisness.
I think there are many many types of weblogs, and there is a bit for every taste: for the extroverts, for the introverts, for the lurkers, for the hungry, for the pervert, for the shy, for the critics, for the hypocrits, for the easy, for the difficult…and so on.
Would you chose a friend and then tell them you’re unhappy because they are not how you want them to be?
The thing is - a weblog is not always locked, and if you read your stats, you’ll know how many weirdos and strangers fork around. I, for example, don’t feel good knowing strangers and weirdos read my very intimate stuff, besides my friends. I am there for my friends, I would tell them how I feel and all in emails, phone calls, letters…but not always on the blog.
Like a poster above me stated, I think some people are apprehensive about posting their thoughts online.
However, I still enjoy reading other people’s blogs, for their frankness, and how I am able to relate with other people like me. What I did today, blah blah blah…
what is this about?
Oddly enough, I am more comfortable having absolute strangers read my “self-exploration” posts than having my friends do so. That is largely because with friends I may wind up talking about how I am trying to figure out my relationship to them and would rather the musings not be known to them until I get somewhere near what I think is TRUE. A stranger doesn’t care if I misunderstand X for a week before I figure it out, but X probably cares quite a bit. This is even more significant when I am writing about dating different people and sorting out who I feel closer to. The only personal entries that I feel equal about sharing with friends or strangers are the “what’s it all about” type. There, I appreciate the helpful/appreciative feedback I get from all corners. It really helps me sort out my thoughts when I’m confused or get confirmation when I’m on the right track.
it is nice to read different views about what everyone is ready to expose on their weblogs.
What i think now is: post what you feel comfortable to post, but always keep in mind that someone else’s point of view might help you a lot and open new perspectives on your side… even from a stranger.
To share about the good, and the not so good stuff can be a good thing, for yourself who will get support from other readers, and from other readers to expand their view on life.
But of course, all of this is personal decision… and yes, there are also things i wont mention in here, but i try to share as much as i can. It frees my mind.
