The Eternal blog problem

This isn't my first blog. I've tried it before. I have, however, posted to this one more than I normally do and I'm quite proud of it. I have now though reached what I call the "Eternal Blog Problem". You see the trick with blogging is what to post and what not to. There may be things you want to talk about and they would make an interesting blog but at the same time you know that if you do someone may not like it. So the Eternal Blog Problem is this, do you blog honestly and openly about whatever you want and risk hurting someone's feelings or go for the self censorship option and make your blog uninteresting? Most folk tend to go for what I call the Dragnet option. In other words "the names have been changed to protect the innocent". It involves blogging whatever you want to but changing some small detail in the hope that the person your blogging about doesn't realise its them and you get away with it. The problem with that though is it makes for a very confusing post. You know what it's about but no one else does! So this is the problem I now face. So what do I do now? here's my solution. I'm going to be honest and tell the truth, but instead of a huge big page long rant about it, I'll sum it up in as little words as possible. here goes:-

you made me feel bad.

glad I got that off my chest! Cya later ;)

  1. Honestly and openly is all well and good, but putting it down here is a semi-permanent record of your reflections on something at that point in time. Your feelings towards something can change over time - so it's not just expedient to avoid talking about things that might upset those involved, but it's also inaccurate and you sometimes need time to get over things, process them, put them in their place, and then have a good old rant and moan about it once it's over with and resolved!

    Maybe that's just me, though... keep at it - you seem to have got your work rate up massively on the scriptwriting, and that's a muscle you need to keep exercising... apologies for the unfortunate analogy! Something to be positive about...
