The first time I posted a blog, truth be told, I had no idea what I was doing or that there is an actual term for posting my ideas/opinions. There I was reading an article on AOL Music about the "Spanish National Anthem", for all that don't know The National Anthem in Spanish by Spanish Artists. What was discussed in the article I took so personal I had to share my two cents, even if no one saw it or read it-I felt better speaking my peace.

Since then I've tried to 'blog' and find it to be very difficult. I consider myself a writer at heart. I would love nothing more then to be able to quit my job, write full time and get paid for it. But to 'blog'! To just post thoughts and opinions of mine in a forum that may or may not be seen. To me the concept is a little foreign, yes even now. I am blogging, but this took thought, preparation, a rough draft, editing and then finally being posted. I've tried to sit on MySpace and post. I sat there and looked at my blank post box, and realized I just can't post. I can't just ramble on for no apparent reason, although most of my really close friends will find this impossible to believe. But, I just don't want to bytch and moan, another hard to believe fact my friends will find humorous. I don't want to brag about the events going on in my life that almost no one else wants to know about. I want my blog to mean something, I want my words to touch people, I want to create a little corner where everyone knows that if you have some thing to say then I want to know! Don't get me wrong though, I want to know what you have to say about What I'm Writing About...LOL

So for all the bloggers out there that just post for the sake of posting, I tip my hat to you! I feel that is the equivalent of writing my deepest, most personal feelings, goals, dreams and desires in my diary... Then leaving it open so anyone can read it. I already have that person in my life- that loves to look through old diaries to see what I used to do, even though he was on every other page. I do respect you guys (& gals) cause you give me a new level of comfort in my writing that I strive to reach.

Hopefully this is my first step towards that level.
