Blogging is a wonderful thing to do - a great vent for feelings, a great pastime that costs nothing and is totally harmless. There was a time when I thought blogging was done by loafers whohave nothing better to do. And therefore I had a really poor view of blogs and their creators.
But now my views have taken a U-turn. Blogging is an amazing anti-stress thing. Probably one of the best things to do when you are alone. Infinitely better than sitting in front of the idiot box.Develops your language. Relaxes you. Refreshes you. The sheer bliss of expressing whatever you wantwithout caring two hoots to what others think about you. I think everyone needs an outlet for theirthoughts. Some people get sloshed and blabber their hearts out. Some people rant and rave.Great poets express their sublime feelings through immortal poems. Modern poets write out their feelings in prose without regard for punctuation and grammar, and call it poetry. Great painters create masterpieces of art. Modern artists slash at their canvasses with brushes and then crumplethem up. Then they un-crumple the canvas, spit and stamp on it for good measure, and call it modernart. Their unquestioning aficionados go ga-ga over the modern art, and buy their works for millions.Bottom line is, everyone needs to unbottle their feelings.
