a note on the title of my blog



a note on the title of my blog:



blogs are a strange, but intriguing idea. they invite discourse, openness, and transparency of our daily musings, wonderings, hurts, thoughts, ideas, etc. since we're all trying to define ourselves, it's interesting to me what people ( i) will or will not publish in a blog. we present ourselves, even more than in face-to-face communication, as a contrived picture. the transparency is posed. anyhow, the whole thing is not only interesting, but also compelling as it provides a creative outlet where i can paint my own picture of myself, my daily world, and my ambitions. it seems to me in a blog we present characterizations of that picture we're trying to paint. i am assured that my characterizations will be nonsensical, because i feel the things that define me the most are of the smallest and least important stance. i seem to feel that the rug i place on my bathroom floor says more about me than the words i speak everyday. although i know this isn't true, i can't help but foresee that my blog will be full of wallpaper cuttings, lampshades, adorable rugs, and the like. they characterize my picture. but, hopefully, as i grow into the person i am to be those things of greater importance and impact will begin to match the ideal picture. with Help my words, thoughts, and ambitions will take shape into the characterizations i am after.
