Fakers and Pretenders

There is this sort of phenomen which I have noticed in some blogs here and there which just strickes me as so completely fake that it bugs, becasue why dosen't a person just say what they mean to say instead of trying to pretend something else.

What I am talking about is those people that try to cliam that the reason they have a blog online, becasue what they have to say is so personal that they cannot trust to write in a traditional pen and paper diary for fear that someone else might see it and read it.

So if I am to understand this correctly, but what they have to say is so seceet and deeply personal that they fear writing it down in a private diary which they could then hide anywhere, even under lock and key if nesscary? But the information would be more secure and private when posted publicaly on the internet? Now am I the only that sees the hypcorisy in this?

Now if for whatever reason a person is in a situation where they really cannot hide or conceal the things they write down, and somehow thier computer is more secure then you know, when establishing a blog there is always the option of setting so that only the author can read what is written, but if you are posting something in the public eye on the internet then you are not looking for privacy my frined. You want people to read what you saying.

I do not know if it gives you some speical sense of drama of voyerism to act as if what you have to say is so top seceret and confidental that you cannot even write down in a personal diary and the only safe place for such informoation is to boradcast it over the internet, and I do not know who you think you are fooling with that act, but I don't buy it.

I agree with you Silver. It is absolutely ridiculous to keep a blog unless you intend to actually write your true thoughts in it. Oh well. Some just don't get it.

Blessings!

G'DAY SILVERWIND,

Well said. Posting anything on the internet and thinking it is for your eyes only...Well I would have to say that is more than a bit daft. If it is private make the blog for you only or as you say write it in a conventual journal with a pen and pad lock it. Love and ((((hugs)))) from Dawnie. :-)
