I've been reading/lurking on many blogs over the past 18 months and even occasionally making contributions in the comments. Not anything that I would call significant, but it's something. I thought that it would be useful to perhaps start writing my own, mostly for myself. Hopefully that is why most people write blogs, since usually blogs don't have a real obvious outer experience - it's an expression of the inner person. But you never know how it will develop and how it will affect others. Many of the blogs that I read are also very personal, but they add something important to my own daily experience and life. It's strange. I'm a fairly confident person and don't need a lot of assurance from others, especially those who are just acquaintances or even unknown, however I find that it is pleasant to read experiences, thoughts and rants that are similar to my own.

It's also a good experience and helpful to me to ground myself with other experiences, thoughts and rants that do NOT reflect my own. That allows me to question what I know and feel and believe.

That should happen every day of every person's life.

So maybe, if I can do that even once a month for someone else, my selfish work here can become something that has contributed to others!
