Half a bucketful...

I never consistently tried maintaining a blog for more than a year.
It's always been a period of a few months to a mere few weeks.
I don't know why it never worked out though...

I'd usually have a lot of passion for the first few weeks...but almost like a candle burning, it extinguishes when no wax is left to replenish the fuel for burning.

I've had several blogs over the years, Xanga was probably the one that I kept longest.
But blogs are just sometimes way too "public".
It would probably be better if there was an automatic sensor to each entry as to who can read it.

You can't be too explicit in the things you say, and yet you don't want to keep it too vague.
But what's the point of writing in a public domain when you want to keep things private?
Why not keep your own diary instead? Isn't that going to be easier? You keep the details disclosed to only yourself, and no one else.
But dilemma comes when you read blogs by other people. You sorta feel that you want to do the same, to voice out your opinion to the world instead.

There it is again. My dilemma...

That's probably why I never got to finishing and keeping any of the online blogs I've ever had.

Maybe I should just start writing about random topics instead.
Start up a blog of random thoughts.
Nothing personal.
Just random stuff.

Now...that is a thought...
Something that I might keep going back to.
Every once in a while.
