I have been reading a lot. And I have been trying to experience as many things as possible. As a result, I have been growing. It is sobering to realise that an idea you thought was completely true may turn out to be the opposite.
Blogs, I once thought that if you had nothing to discuss and you were just writing down your thoughts (like a diary) then you probably shouldn't write a blog. As I read more I realise that there is nothing wrong with blogging even if it is just writing down how you feel. As long as you keep to the boundaries of Islam (no slagging of other people) then if nothing else, the blog can act as a medium for you to vent out your feelings and generate a response. It can be a way of release for you.
I say all of this not because I have changed the purpose of my blog, but rather because I realise that after reading a gzillion blogs that while the people may change, with different styles of writing, varying languages all writing about different things, and yet, amidst all of that, I am slowly starting to see a common thread. Some talk about world issues and others just talk about their own personal issues, but a lot of blogs written by young adults have something in common in which all their authors have something to say. Things they probably can't in real life. And I think its great they can do it online.
So entering the new year, any resolutions on my part?
Tons.
But none that I feel the need to share with people online. :)
