Why to Blog?

While surfing through blogs yesterday, I stumped over a question “why to Blog at all?” Here, I am not only talking about Blogging in particular but to surf the net 24*7, wasting all your precious time on social networking sites and visiting profiles, increasing your friend list or scrap number to boost it in your friend circle.

We are facing a situation where we have to write what we are feeling about something in a blog, instead of sharing it with those who really matters?

We are sticking to social networking sites to make new friends (I don’t think anyone can find real friends over these sites). You’ll say its 21st century , and we have cleared technological barriers for that matter, I’ll say human emotions are still somewhere back in 18th century and no one can trust people over these sites just by having a look at their profiles.

So, my point here is,
Is it right to empty our minds and hearts (all our worries, doubts, anger, frustrations, happiness, feelings) in a blog than expressing them in front of those who have the right to actually know about it??

I am in no ways against Blogging, It provides a very good platform to express views in front of a large number of people and provide everyone with some “Food for Thought” but doesn’t it makes sense that instead of making it a full-time activity , we give some of our time to our loved ones. I call it “Family Time”. You call it whatever you feel like but what’s important is not to take your family or friends for granted and love them and support them all your life!!!
