Hello, Good-bye


HELLO! :)

I've been thinking lately I don't want to have a blog anymore.

I think if I had something important to say, if I was an expert in, say, economics or family home evening, and people came to my blog to be educated, that would be a good reason to have one. If I was a really witty political commentator that would be a good reason to have one. If I was talented at quilting or sewing and people came to my blog to be inspired or learn a skill, that would be a good reason to have one. If I was selling something or making money, that would be a good reason to have one. If I was doing family history and wanted information to be available for other people, that would be a good reason to have one. If I had family or friends far away and wanted to keep them updated, that would be a good reason to have one. If I was using it as a journal for my family that would be a good reason to have one. Or if I had a tonne of friends and a very interesting, dramatic life I was willing to share details of with the world, that would be a good reason to have one.

Sadly, none of those applies to me. It's starting to feel incredibly narcissistic to have a blog when no one really cares what I have to say, mostly because I have nothing much to say. Especially since I've just been through one of the hardest couple months of my life and I can't say anything about it on here. So I only blog the good parts of my life? Not my style. I'm much too honest for that, let's just say I'm much too honest! To my own detriment and embarrassment at times.

The thing with me is, I change my mind all the time. I'm okay with that. I live my life according to the knowledge I have currently attained. So who knows, I might just find a new focus and decide it's a good idea again. Can anyone give me a good reason to keep my blog, because I probably would if I got a good one!

Now what to do about facebook. I HATE FACEBOOK!! :)
