all's fair in 18 and 19

Have you ever experienced that feeling of wanting to reveal everything about yourself for those who care, but not wanting to give too much to those who won't understand? Blogs make me feel that way. In my opinion a good blog is an art for the author. Don't write too much and show all your cards and don't write too little to where your reader doesn't want to take a walk with you in "real life".

I like people who like intelligent conversation and can understand exactly what I mean when I leave loose ends in my sentences. Unfortunately, I don't find these kind of people very often.

"Live your life like a blog" could be a good motto, but then again, maybe the world should see something different in a time where everyone either thinks they're going to be famous or are so gaurded they bore you to death.

Anyways, I'm not saying be gaurded at all times with everyone, I'm just simply saying if you have a blog and your "reader" is not approved by friend request then you should write about what you need to to make people see a glimpse of what you are about, but leave parts of your soul sacred for the people who love every peice of it and don't care what you look like when you wake up in the morning.

That said, this has been a very candid post, so maybe I showed too much..or maybe just enough to make you come back tomorrow.

Love, BC


p.s. Yesterday (18) was: sitting on the rooftop at the airport watching the airplanes land and take off.


Today (19) was: reading my new biography on Einstein. Can we become genuis or are we born with it?

Pretty awesome post actually! I have had these thoughts about exactly how much to reveal myself. And, writing is very much a way in which we put our souls up for display - eek!
