Snobby? Seeking Attention?
It’s been a while for a little writing in here….
After a while, and after reading an article in a newspaper, I lost my passion in writing a blogs.
It is said in the newspaper, blogging is a form of snob-thingy or looking/seeking for attention thingy. I really love the writer of the article, He is a weekly-Sunday columnist. Part of his argument is true, but not 100% correct. I think people turn to blogging because of the Internet-Era, not everybody has time to turn into a thick little diary to write (some people with no internet connection/rural area might still do that, though).
Everybody stick infront of their laptop. Working, Typing, Chatting, Dating, Anything…. includes Blogging.
It gives us instant impact. New Circle Friends, New Fans (of the writings), New Secret Admirers, New Stalkers, New Cyber Popularity. (Okay….
maybe this is what the writer means by seeking of attention).
It also give us a privacy (if you posting your writings under a “nickname” or Fake name, not with the whole story of your life like I did :))….), A little New World called “MY WORLD” with you as the star of the show.
Instant Impacts. That’s about it. Anyway everybody need just a little things called “popularity”.
They need to show their children, boyfriend, dogs, cats, fiancee, city, country…. their new house, their new clothes, their new trophies, new cars, new bikes…. they even opening online stores! (Maybe this is what the columnist said about “being a snob”…).
Well, for me, it’s better than putting fake pictures, fake profile, fake life, …. fake, etc.
It’s okay to be anything, to write anything, to put anything, to post anything. Do whatever suits you, as long as you don’t hurt anybody with whatever you did or do. And if you do or did hurt anyone, mirror yourself, say sorry and fix it. I think that’s the best way to stay “sane”.
I’m just writing this to fill my spare time before dinner. I don’t mean to offends anyone.
Glad to be back! ![]()
