Is anyone actually going to read this?

So here i am typing up a blog. something that everyone, but me, seems to be doing...so why not? If everyone else is doing it why shouldn't i succumb to this oddly popular trend of pouring out your soul onto a socially networked community? Why don't i just do what everyone else is doing? And for now all i have to say is, I will. I am always up for trying something new and exploring new horizons and even though the pride within me doesn't want to be associated with any stereo type or trend that isn't my own i will adventure forth and see what positive things can be had from this, if there are none i will simply end my blogging career and return to my perfectly happy blog-free environment that i come from.

Ok fine you're a blogger, but now the question arises...what am i supposed to blog about? Well i'm sure it's supposed to be something interesting that will engage my "followers" and keep them coming back for more. Witty jokes? Political theories that would arouse the emotion of all the democrats in the world? Something controversial or offensive? Interesting things it seems often consist of your inner desires and feelings and contemplations of the mysteries of the universe, but truth be told unless i am really comfortable with people viewing this blog, i don't want it to be a publicly displayed journal full of private and delicate parts of my life for anyone  and everyone to view.

If you are still reading this then it appears that i have done a good job at keeping your interest. Is it my unique perspective or opinion of blogs that has kept you intrigued? Is it the undeviating fact that every soul has something unique and special to contribute to the world and that through my blog i am exposing you to my completely original thought process which you somehow gel with? Sam Wal understood this concept well and valued the opinion of all his employees knowing that everyone of them understood or saw something that he couldn't and by harnessing these thoughts and ideas has created a global empire of shopping centers. That to me is very intriguing, but then again it may not be to anyone else. and again i can't help but ask myself: "Is anyone actually going to read this?" The truth is, i really doubt anyone will read this blog. My theory is that a blog is more for the blogger than the people following the blog itself. And while motor-typing my way through this, my very first blog, i feel that i have greatly benefited and that i have even learned some things about myself that will help me progress in my life. It's almost like a personal therapy session, and blogging is way cheaper than a shrink so maybe that's the benefit of doing this that i am just now discovering. I am excited to continue on this new blogging chapter of life and hope to gain all there is to be had from this unique resource and tool that is blogging.

    Don't ask me how I came upon this because I have no idea. (Especially since I highly doubt you'll ever see this comment.)
    I liked the way you discretely insulted blogging.
    Sort of.
    Ha :)
