My blog site is considered as my other world. Here, I am able to express whatever comes into my not-so-genius mind. Often, I receive comments of appreciation from people. Well, maybe because we are Filipinos and we tend to be fond of using euphemisms (laughs). Filipinos have been taught by the elders that if you don’t have something good to say, then you better keep quiet. There came a time, just 3 days ago I think, wherein I have received a comment from a friendster buddy saying that my new blog site is boring (I have another blog site in my friendster account). Well, that’s new. Nobody has ever said that before. (laughs) I sent him a message asking him why he said such. It is for the reason that I want to know what else to improve and what else to add for me to grow as a writer. I accept criticisms healthily. Unfortunately, he never replied back.
It got me thinking of what possible reasons could there be for him to arrive into that idea; maybe because I discuss about topics that doesn’t concern the majority. People always like to talk about one topic – Love. I am not writing about it simply because I can’t be a good writer about it. My teacher had once said that the best writer of love, is the one in love. Yes, I may consider myself in love in one way or another, to friends for example or to my family. But I think that this is not the kind of “love” people want to converse about. All of us are more interested in reading love stories and anything that has to do with it; failures, dating, conflicts, and etcetera. Here, in my blog site, I would want to write on things which I think I can be good at. (laughs) I may be not in love with a specific person, but I am actually contented with where I am now.
I may be alone, but I am not lonely. *wink*
