about blogging

For me, blogging is to share ideas and as a personal journal.

Perhaps, you or the rest of us have different reasons to blog. Some of us blog for branding, getting money by placing some ads, giving tips or just spit-out-the-words in your head.

Some bloggers care about statistics of their visitor, some others don’t. I never looked into kind of statistic-chart of my visitor.

As a personal journal, I blog because I want to keep a track of my lif. Have you ever read your old-previous post and smile because you remember the old days that you area so weak, make some stupid move, so passionate about something, or post some quotes reflects you that day. A “Kodak Moment” of a life.

Indeed, I love comments from my readers. For that, I appreciate it. I know it tooks effort to read and even to give comment about it. But, that is not the basic reason I write something.

It’s so irrelevant that we judge someone by his post. Can you define someone in his/her entire life by looking his/her photo? If you a psychic or have some jedi ability, may be you can do it. As same as blog, you can’t judge the blogger behind it because of his/her post.

I used to called my blog as a fortress of solitude. Where I can enjoy a luxury of being my-self.

I have some role-model or idea-source in blogosphere. One of them is Jenny. She is an Indonesian writer who lives in a America. I share the same passion with her about blogging. That we can create value for someone else using simple tool called “words”. Words can change people, and even can change the world.

If you like her writing, you can submit her RSS into your favorite feedreader (I use FeedDemon) or submit via email in here.
