Five reasons why I blog you ask? There are many. Most of all is the joy it brings me to write and share photos with friends and family. Others are off-shoots of this very special one.

I really enjoy blogging though not near enough as much as I did before, partly because of time constraints and I find it more fulfilling to write something personal rather than being a pedestrian messenger broadcasting the same topic like a few thousand else on the internet. Really, do we need that many copies? Good composition generally take a bit more time to assimilate and present but when catered for usually make for an interesting read. Well, in most cases.

That being said I do write about technology at times but over the years I’ve found it to be a rather insipid way of engaging ones personal blog. And there are those blogs that are so intimate and overly lovey-dovey or just so cliché-d and stereotyped you might even barf past the first para. But then a lot of adults with mental age of teens swear by them. Oh so cool! Thats so funky dude! Yeah! Awesome!

Seems like I was falling through a trapdoor of depression there, but of course to each their own and there is nothing wrong with silly banter and little talk of Desperate Housewives. Oh I love Bree Van de Kamp. But, what I love most about blogging is the fact that it promotes devolved publishing, it puts power in the hands of people. This is a great way to explore and make ones voice be heard provided its for the appropriate reasons. Write something original, be youself, be brave to share your life experiences in a pleasant way.

Blogging is a great social tool, its a great way to share ones ideas, and in the hands of positive thinkers its the single-most great tool to change the present. “Blogging metaphorically is mightier than the sword.” Dare I say faster too! And on that note instead of passing a turd called meme I rather ask you here… why do you like or dislike blogs? Surprise me.
