Pant... Wheeze...

Kimota94's just making it hurt with the density of his blog posting. I thought I'd have so much to write about, all the time, non-stop, but hey I guess we can't be everything to everyone. I have enough problems being something for me. What I really wanted to do with a blog (after thinking about it for a bit) was to create a space where I could write more. That is my focus, my goal, purpose, raisin debt rah, whatever.

I wrote a comment (to this posting) in response to a comment tammy wrote that sums up this idea. I don't aim to attract a following or gain respect - I want to create things that will stand on their own. Pearls of wisdom or insubstantial puffs thought, they are for the ether, for everyone and anyone to contemplate.

It would be nice to be make money from something like writing. Maybe that'll be something else I should strive for. Always good to have goals and dreams. Right now though my dreams are a goal I need to pursue - I'm so very tired.

Chris, if you go back to some of my earliest blog entries (waaaaaay back in October of double ought six), you'll see some of my rationale for blogging's not too different from your own.

Excellent. You have blazed a trail I hope to follow. I'm sure someone has done it before and more will follow me, but it's the journey, right?

Thanks for the encouragement.
