Why blog?

Spreading your heart out to the world never helped anyone yet. And yet here I am pouring out the secrets of my petty life into a blog. The great thing though, is that I do feel better after I do this. In my extrablog life, I keep myself to myself. And get along pretty all right too.

Ok, so I don't have friends. No shoulder's to weep on, so to say. (But then who wants to weep anyway !) I am generally seen as the reserved type. Immune to feelings. Come on !

Maybe that is why I blog.

Loner, you're not alone. Well, I'm here for you. At times, I feel like I don't have any "TRUE" friends. I don't trust anyone, and the people that I think are my friends, will be the first ones to stab me in the back. So, I keep to myself.

I only trust in one person: GOD. Why? Because He promised me He would never leave me or forsake me. And guess what, He hasn't. How do I know this? Because if He did leave me way back when, I wouldn't be alive today.

I haven't poured out my heart in my blog. I haven't been really personal in my blog. Maybe, I will someday.

I hope today is a much better day for you.

Hey rain, I am sorry if I offended you. I was talking mostly about myself you know, in that part about "pouring". You are a very good person. And you know what one of the things that keeps me going is your blog.

I have this problem of mixing things up, personal and the rest. That confuses most people, including myself. Maybe it is the stress of appearing sane to the world and insane to the blog. I don't know.

Incidentally I took the liberty of linking to your blog right at the top of my own blog. I hope that is all right.

I know you are out there in case the world goes really whacky for me. Thank you, friend. You are right. There aren't many true friends out there. That stab in the back can come anytime.

Once again, I am sorry about the confusion.

Loner, no need to apologize. I wasn't offended at all. I didn't take it personally because I think I knew what you were tallking about.
Thanks for linking my blog. :-)

hey jil. Thanks. You have "real" point there. Bloglife is full of friends. Most of them are good too, unlike the kind you get in real life.

He was back in that old place, where memories were on riot. Nostalgia doesn't half describe what he felt. It was not the moon. Not the flowers. The shock of deja vu was in the ordinary things, in the vegetables and the sodden grass. The drizzle just added to the score. He realized what many before him had already known. That love is not about joy, or happiness. It is about anguish, about a glimpse of the unreachable. A vision of what the human brain can achieve, and what no neural circuit has yet managed to duplicate. Sitting on the moist rocks of the cliff, he realized he woud gladly go through the same pain, and grief. For love is a gift of god, even for athiests. A message form a power greater than humanity. And he said to himself. I miss you. I miss you like the air I breathe. The ripple of the waves of the lake, like soft laughter, fills me with a silent loneliness nothing can ever wash away. Where are you now? What are you doing?

A Weird Loner !

Pondering on the reason for one's existence is hardly the sort of thing one ought to be doing these days. But, there being nothing really worthwhile about life, about being alive, or even about feeling alive, this is just the kind of futile occupation that appeals to loner's of my sort. So here I am, by my favourite watering hole, listening to the silence of eons. Maybe I am weird, like some nice people have kindly pointed out. What they have not been able to point out though, is the reason for my weirdness or anybody elses weirdness. I guess, sitting by all by oneself, by the side of a sullen lake is weird. Fine. So I am a weird loner. Thank you very much. That is what loners are ! Anyway, I haven't posted anything at all for a long time. Even my best friends seem to have given up on me. It is tough being a loner. It is tougher being a weird loner.
Is theology a contardiction in terms ? Is it possible for a mere mortal to study God. I wonder, like so many before me, how any one can be arrogant enough to think that God, if it exists, can be comprehended by man. I woud have thought that by definition God is incomprehensible. So any study in that direction is futile and bound to fail.
