Of Shy Exhibitionism


I was trying to convince a friend to give me the URL to her blog... She refused...
Now whats wrong with this picture?
EVERYTHING, if I am asked (which is just about never, ergo - this blog)...the whole point of a blog is that you put up your knowledge, thoughts, feelings, emotions (and sometimes just cold logic) for the whole world to see. Why else would you post something that is so easily accessible to just about everybody who wants to go there... no passwords, no permissions and no restrictions to reading what's on.

Answer: Its a bit of a rush knowing that people you don't even know exist, can see whats up in your life, and have a look what you think is important and pertinent.
The problem, I guess, arises when people who you DO know... albeit vaguely, have access to that little piece of info... The one's who are close won't do anything about your personal ramblings... and the one's who aren't... CAN'T... Its the ones that fall in the middle who are the problem.

Here comes life's little paradoxes...

PS: i DID manage to get the aforementioned blog URL at the time of going to print of this post...

Cheers.

Lots of authors write under a "Pen name" to hide their true identity.. Still go ahead n put their pictures at the end of the book.. Defeats the purpose really after and if the book becomes famous.. Point is the ones closest to them may be the last to know about their hidden talents/emotions..Such people are defined as shy n private. They want to express their emotions at same time keep themselves anonymous.. Hmm I think its kinda cute don't ya..;)
