I suck at blogging

I've decided that I am officially one of the worst bloggers I know. I do, however, have a couple theories as to why I just cannot get the hang of this blogging thing. I think one of the main reasons is that I am a journal kind of gal. You know, that thing you do with an actual pen and paper.

Writing in a journal is so much different from typing on a computer. There is just something about the ink on the pad that is much more real, open, and honest. Perhaps it is the fact that on the computer it is much too easy to erase entire sentences, paragraphs, and even pages. With a couple clicks of a button, entire thoughts and feelings can be gone in an instant. Another thing about journal writing is that there are no readers. I simply write for me and only me. Sometimes I will share an excerpt here or there with certain people, but for the most part, there is no audience to qualify, no politically correctness, no ones feelings to consider, no boundaries, no bars, just freedom.
