Damn blog statuses...

So, sometimes people think that having blogs is like a way of keeping a journal when they were kids. They write everything but the difference is, in blogs, they post their writings for everybody to read.

People in the blog world know the other is happy, depressed, pissed off, or just feeling bored.

Most people think they can get more appreciated if they write everything that happened to them in day, or that they went to this really fancy restaurant or had a date with a really hot personality.

Some would think they’ll get pity from strangers if they share their recent break-up stories, how they flunk a subject, the dilemma between two lovers, how their families don’t appreciate them.

But most times, some people don’t just care unless they know you from inside out. Some people would just run down the first few words of your blog entry and would then scroll down to find some interesting cute photography, or reblog challenges.

However, don’t you think that with that simple happy thought you share with the world, you could actually inspire someone? That with that really long rant about your filthy rich boyfriend/girlfriend would make another more confident to find his/her own millionaire? Or that with a simple flame about how much you hated your English teacher would have another reader nod and say, “Yes, I feel the same way.”

Things change as technology advances. Before, you used to put a lock on your journal and hide it underneath your mattress and would threaten anyone who dares to read it. Now, you click the POST button on your online blog and let that entry inspire other people or make them believe that they actually aren’t alone in the world. :D
