do you wash your dirty linen in public? soap suds and all?

Was chatting with bell today (yesterday, time now is 2am!)... and she gave me the URL to her blog, from there I explore from blog to blog, mostly YWAV-ers ones. (YWAV-ers, sorry arh, I did read your blogs, I can't remember whose I have read and I can't remember everything that was written)

The general idea I get from the blogs (and I stress again, I do not remember every detail of what was written) is that, lamentations has no age limit. ahaha. You young people are fortunate to have an avenue to lament. My days? Tell my marler she also won't understand.. Write diary? Can't afford (ok, sometimes I can afford, but I spend it on things-I-can't-even-recall).

What's wif the dirty linen then? I am just pondering, as I begin this blog... when do you say what you want to say and when do you NOT say what you want to say? Especially, if your blog is read by people who knows who you know.. get what I mean? Do you tell them what you never tell the other person?

But blogs are public (at least if you choose to show them to the world) entity. Sometimes, out of resent, out of anger, we just want to "publicly" denounce a person, albeit not in front of them or people they know, but to the other "public", the internet audience, who do know know that person at all. We just want the whole world to know that such person/s exists and you really dislike what he or she did. And that we are really pissed.

The difference? I do not know about the others, but I think I felt much better after writing bad blogs about others. The words that became permanent fixtures on the net provide some solace for my angry soul. When I read them days later, I learn about myself and my attitude toward others. Sometimes, re-read them helps me to put my views into the right perspective.

"So silly, angry over that thing, FOR WHAT? Din gain an extra hour for that. Duh."

"ermm... was I too kiddish to have thought that way?"

"oh well, lesson learnt. But Jesus said we should love one another. Well, at least if I can't love in that sense, I can practice more tolerance. Otherwise, what difference do I make from a non-Christian? Shame on you, they love more than you."

of course, these are sometimes. Other times, it's just lamentations. Haiz.. lamentations reminds me of a domain name I "squatted" couple of years back. I had "lemontations.com" for a couple of year before I gave it up. Nobody bought it. Haiz. I din make full use of it. Haiz. Mebbe I should buy it back. It's much better than joyrockmedia.. hmm. Anyone knows how to create a blog program? When I get it, we can all blog together! kewl!

I love to blog. Blogs are fantastic to jot down tots! But I always forgot. There are many moments God spoke, but I left the words unattended in my brain and forgotten all about it. argh.

btw, what is "bleahz"?
