honesty, my dear fellow bloggers. how much is too much?
what would you like to read on this blog? so far as me creating a journal of events, i haven't been quite so honest. if i had, you would have known about what i like to call, my deepest secrets. not that they're really rather deep, nor are they secret from those i talk to on a regular basis. but what should i be telling the blogging world, really?
my fear is of being an annoying blogger. in fact, that's my fear in every day life. would you like to hear the angst of a teenager? the feelings of a hormonal-almost-twenty-year-old? lets face it, no one really wants to hear that. right? for my part i'm inclined to stick almost exclusively to the stuff that makes one laugh. and/or rather large events in my life. recently, however, that doesn't make for frequent blogging. but i've never been one to publicly address my personal feelings. its uncomfortable. and no one likes to be uncomfortable.
but, maybe i could do uncomfortable. maybe.

Depends on what your purposes are in blogging. If you want to become a super famous blogger who makes tons of money from the millions of readers she has every month, then you'll need to write open ended posts which apply/appeal to a mass audience.
I use my blog as a journal of sorts; I write about things that apply to me. I'm open about most of my challenges, because I know I can't have been the only person to face them before. I find peace and comfort in the encouragement my friends and family leave me in the comment section. I also use my blog as a way to document my life; I love to go back and read old posts and remember life "back then".
I guess what I'm trying to say is: before you decide how much is too much, you have to decide what the ultimate purpose of your blog is. The purpose of mine is to document my life, share my feelings and ask for help from friends.
keep blogging, because now i have to resort to reading youre blog because we never have time to talk on the phone. and you never tell me about florida on the phone. so this is perfect.
