I keep getting the same questions and comments over and over from friends and family who I make aware of my blog.
-Why do you do it?
-Who are you hoping reads it?
-I don't get it?
I don't have the answers to these questions. One thing I have found is that this is the longest that I have ever gone keeping a diary, of sorts, so that fact alone keeps me going. I know it is kind of a diary of the mundane and that's OK, at least it is some kind of an outlet for me. It takes me barely anytime and it allows me to focus, I guess it is becoming my morning meditation. I'm not sure who I want to read this thing. Why would I want anyone but close friends and family to know about such personal stuff? I don't know. Also it's really not that personal or deep. I guess that's why I've keep it pretty generic. All I really know is that I enjoy doing this and I've got some crazy notion that at some point this is all going to gel and move in a direction that makes sense to me and can be understood by everyone else. I imagine if I was publishing some sort of a story online or a documentary or something like that there would be no questions. I think that this is why I keep writing, someday something may evolve. Who the hell really knows. But, until then I may just keep recording the mundane aspects of my life.
