Blogs are for Those Who...

I heard a professor once say that blogs are for people who want attention which may sometimes be true-but that is often misunderstood as "all of the time" :). I have also heard that blogging allows people to release their withheld emotions. Instead of screaming at somebody who has consistently frustrated you, you can write your thought down which will allow you to extinguish your emotions. This theory is most likely also true for some people. I have once or twice even written a blog while emotionally peaked, so I can vouch for this to be a legitimate reason for blogging. Blogging is important--and most essential--to me for another reason though. Blogging gives me the opportunity to give information to people in a feasible way: it's simple, it has high potential, I can stay better hidden (which is hardly true), and I will not be as easily rejected. I blog whenever I feel I must; not during a specific time, nor do I stress about a certain amount per month. I blog whenever I have an interesting idea or point. I blog because I enjoy it; it is fun. Blogging is an attempt by me to help those who I will never meet in person. This is why I choose to blog and why I choose to write.
