Well..this is the first time I am starting to put my thoughts into words for all to read! It is definitely a big achievement for someone like me who has always been shy of sharing her writings.
But lately, I have come to realize the significance of such growing fever for these e-spaces where people like to document their thoughts about different things in day to day life. I for one have come to think that writing down your thoughts is good way to analyze your own psyche.
For example I have been really frustrated about something at work and so, my thought process tends to be negative about most of the things. I swear more I find flaws in everything and in the conclusion feel helpless about things. So at that point when I write something and then read what I have written with a 3rd person's perspective, I realize where my thoughts and energy is getting wasted. And consequently I try to direct my thoughts towards the happier side.
Also, one big advantage of blogging is that it gives you the confidence of expressing your thoughts and patience to accept the criticism of people and in some cases flattery as well. :)
On the flip side I think there are just so many of us blogging our heads out, and so many of us reading the stuff written by others that content of thoughts has really taken backseat. For example people start writing about anything under the sun with no meaning to it. But that is because all of us just need an outlet for some or the other feeling be it happiness, sadness, nothingness or just whatever. What we forget is easily accessible portals propagate that feeling into the readers multiplying its magnitude over the masses. Because in today's world there are takers for everything!
That is why in earlier days pen used to be considered a very powerful means of making or breaking the society. But at that time the readers and thinkers used to a selected few. Now its just everybody!
So now I rest my pen or keys for that matter and see where my thoughts take their readers! :)
Keep blogging!
