To Blog or not to Blog?
Posted by peace on March 17th, 2008
Through the KALEIDOSCOPE…
Have you ever had a journal or a diary? It’s where your deep, dark secrets are thrown into a fray where there are no dark corners, no narrow alleyways just black and blue pen inked in pieces of paper. A blog is kind of like that except instead of being this really personal thing that you keep to yourself, it’s more of a really public circus for the entire world to see.
You all probably know the difference between blogs and journals anyway. I really don’t think there’s enough reason for me to explain what those differences are. I will, however, explain to you the difference between blogging and actually speaking to someone, about whether or not blogging is a good way to capture moments in your life.
Do you know that there’s a difference between writing in a blog and actually talking to people? Writing in a blog is easy– no one can judge you midway through the process. There aren’t any interruptions, no breaks in the turn; the ambience that you create stays till you’re done speaking.
And when you blog, you’re safe from mistakes. A small typo in the fray is your biggest concern. You can just type, untype and retype everything ’till you’re finally done with the post. You’re virtually as grammatically correct as you can get here– you don’t stutter, mumble or slur your words. You don’t repeat yourself over and over again. It’s a fixed, set block of words and letters.
In speaking, however, anything can go wrong. You can stutter, mumble and slur what you’re saying - forcing you to say it again and again till you finally say it clearly enough for the person to understand you. You can forget what you’re saying and just sit there, looking all retarded and quiet. You can be interrupted at any time, even before you get the entire message out. It just kills the ambience, the mood that you’re trying to set in the conversation. And you have to face who you’re speaking to– see every reaction, every frown and smirk that they make at what you’re saying. It’s a painful process, speaking in person…
One thing I like about speaking though is that there really is an ambience. When you blog, it’s just there when you’re typing. After you finally post it, the mood you set is dead and gone. It was only when you were writing that the mood was actually something real, something around you. You set it for yourself, basically, when you blog. You can pour your entire heart out in a post while you’re typing it and realize that it’s just another block of words when you’re done posting… it really doesn’t mean anything anymore, it’s just there, really.
So does a blog really do justice to what one feels at a precise moment? Does it capture the passion of the writer in blocks of words, paragraphs written in verse? Well, it’s really up to how good a writer you are, Maline, Grace, Nelson, Andre, Yeng, Danny, Ize & Goldwyn.
There you are guys, I made it! I mean, I was able to tagged you in a different and simple way. So, keep them flowing. . . Good luck!

Whoah! I mean, WOW! Ang galing. kahit na-nosebleed po ako naintindihan ko. Sa totoo lang po tamad talaga ako magbasa ng mahahabang post kase andami kong kailangang bisitahin pero pagdating dito sa blog nyo. grabe. interesting! hehe.
Dito po sa entry nyo na to (na favorite ko), para sakin, mas nalalabas ko yung nararamdaman ko sa pagbablog. hindi po kase ako magaling sa salita.
At pag nagtatype ka, walang makikialam sayo. Pwede mong burahin lahat ng mali at palitan ng mas tama. Unlike pag nagsasalita ka.
thanks po sa pagpopost nito.
ay nga pala, pwede pong paki change na lang po yung link ko sa http://ang.lakambini.org? yun na po kase ang gamit ko ee..
salamat po

wow, very nice blog te paz. sorry, i was quite busy with web designing stuff and house construction. hehe! good place to hang around.
well, blogging for me really began too as something that would sooth my aching heart. i’m not that heart broken but i usually find refuge in detailing my dreams (and my frustrations) in blogging. soon, i found out how to make a few bucks out of it. works well really.
still, after a few months of blogging for money, i still ached for that truly sincere and personal blog. so i started this blog of mine - free of ads (for now, hehehe).
hope i find the time to blog hop again. see yah around.

hi po! thanks for the tag! i like this post! this one really showed the writer in you.
for me, blogging has really provided me an opportunity to share what i think and feel, but not at the precise moment. sometimes i write my post at a later date, because i was busy with something else. but whether i write what i want to write now, or later, does not really matter, as long as i put a lot of my emotions in the post.

PS. As the previous address of an e-mail has been removed also all letters on it have been lost I is compelled to make this dispatch once again.
PS2. To send url your site on an e-mail stop.web.spam@gmail.com is a unique way to avoid a spam from me. To write abuses to the various “stop spam” sites - it is useless.
PS3. Your addresses of an e-mail are not necessary to me, you can create an e-mail through free service and send me yours url through this e-mail
PS4. sorry for my bad English
