MYe thoughts: On Blogging….

People see blogging as a way to express themselves. From their happiest moments to their crappiest thoughts. But what people sometimes forget about blogging is that you can hurt other people’s feelings. Yes, it’s your right to say what you want to say, we are in a democratic country after all. But we forget that when we have rights, we also have responsibilities. We have to remember that there are other people on the other side of your computer screen reading about your blog and might get affected, if not insulted, with what you are writing about. And you can’t expect everyone to like what you have to say or understand and respect your point of view. Especially if you end up saying crap about them.

I’m writing about this because I saw on Facebook a girl who blogged nasty stuff about a certain school in the Philippines. People read about it, got defensive for their Alma Mater, and started saying stuff about her and most even fought with her blog to blog.

I’m not here to judge her. Though I don’t agree with what she did, I understand where she’s coming from. She has thoughts and feelings she needed to express and she thought blogging about it would be the best way to go at it. I would know, I’ve been in her shoes. We just wanted to be heard, to be able to exercise our right to speak our mind. But I’ve learned that when you do things like this, you have to be prepared for the possibility that people will get hurt, and more importantly, people will get mad. And it becomes messy.

I’m glad that when it happened to me, the people I hurt decided to talk to me about it and we hashed it out, privately. It wasn’t easy, but we did it. But more often than not, what happens is what happened with that girl. She was attacked online, forcing her to delete her account. People judged her, and they continue to. A simple click of a button has caused her so much stress and unnecessary drama.

We have to learn to filter ourselves. Know when to write about something and when to keep it to yourself. There is a proper place for such thoughts, and it’s not online, unless your willing to go through all of what happened to her. I just hope she has learned her lesson just like me. And I hope by writing this blog, those who have read this won’t make the same mistakes we did.

As for me, I have learned to focus on the positive side of things. I try to write about the good things in life, choosing to keep the things I don’t like to myself or trying to find a balance between the two if I do decide to write about it. But when it comes to talking crap about other people you should think twice before posting it online, because once it’s out there, you’ll never going to be able to completely delete it. And it’s hard to control who can and can’t read it. Cause things like these, they never stay quiet for long.

My favorite inanimate object are shoes! I love shoes and how they can make you feel sexy, sporty or whatever you want to express. :D
