An issue about blogs... (my perspective)

What is the real reason for you wanting a blog? To write events that you want to remind yourself of, to bitch about people, to write sad things, to write about anything you want to write. Just like a diary right? So how does a diary function? You write in it and store it somewhere where people can't find ya? But does that mean your diary CAN'T be found forever? Have you heard of people accidently reading your diary? Yup that's the same concept as well...
When you have a blog, it serves the same purpose. I, too, thought that it can be something hidden from the people I know. Unfortunately, it was found and word just spreads like wild fire. Blogs are also something you can express freely of your opinions. But do remember that there are restrictions to you voicing out. It's good to throw healthy criticisms but not verbal attacks at a particular person, no matter whether it's ambigous or not. Similarly to the person who is reading it, they should understand why the blogger is writing such things or why they would be the 3rd party to know of such events. It can be quite saddening and irritating, but this is how things go. I wouldn't like if someone talks badly about me but neither could I control what he/she should/should not do.
Bottomline is that blogs are similar to diaries, unless you encrypt it with a password, it is still liable to people's view. Being angry that people spy on you is inevitable, I would be angry too if I were you. But try to accept that gossips are just gossips, they will pass very soon...

Still thinking about this topic
