So the people I admire most these days seem to be writing about some pretty cool things. On their Blogs. Blog... great word. A word that didn't exist, what, 2 years ago?
Sounds pretty caveman-ish if you ask me.
"Mmm... me think Blog is delicious!" or
"Blog! Wipe feet before come in cave after hunt!"
I was asked this week if I Blog, and I didn't know how to answer. Umm... Sort of? I've thought about it? Well, no. I mean yes... I put up this site like 2 years ago and posted a couple, literally 2, posts. To be honest, when I went to look for it tonight, I was certain that it had disappeared back into the Blog-i-verse. I even forgot what I'd called it. Wow - that's got "impact" written ALL over it, eh?
Seems I've got a bit of a Blog complex.
I'm afraid that my thoughts won't be as cool as the thoughts of those on the Blogs that I read.
I'm afraid that I will run out of things to say.
I'm afraid that I will come across as arrogant, self absorbed or all-knowing.
I'm afraid of being compared to the REAL movers and shakers on the planet and falling short.
I'm afraid of my motives for having a Blog.
I'm afraid of typos and poor grammar.
I'm afraid of not having any followers.
I'm afraid that the people who DO follow me will see the real me and be disappointed.
and many more...
But - I think I'll give it a shot. Mostly because I'm tired of FEAR and the havoc it wreaks. So, this will be a little step toward being unafraid.
If nothing else, it will give me a place to dump what's in my brain and maybe crack myself up a time or two. If you decide to "follow" me (weird - can't we just say hang out with? What's with follow?), AWESOME. Let's see how this goes! If you like it, tell a friend. If you don't, just tell me I've got a great personality.
Done "Blogging" for the night. Hmm... that didn't hurt too much.
Meeshee out.
