Finding Your Feet.

Quite an interesting fashion this "blogging" lark, I must first confess that I am a complete junior, a novice, by which I mean I am no expert in the history of this trend. However, one thing I have observed when reading other blogs, is that it may offer some sort of therapy, whereby you can simply sit and reflect on the sights and sounds of every day life. I believe that is what interests me most, the insights into another's ideas and opinions and simply having one's honesty on topics that they feel they can put forward when sitting in the solitude of their own room, their keyboard being the only tool by which they can communicate freely.

Of course, what I have already said above, suggests the typical "emo" trends that may be connected with blogging. I have chosen to overlook such stereotypes (though I would always assume that a stereotype exists because they are in some ways true). People are often baffled by blogging or scared - unnerved by it's simplicity perhaps, simply writing for the sake of writing. Then there is the fear that nobody will give a damn about what you are writing of course. That's an interesting consideration, though for me I can't help but see the beauty in simply freeing yourself from the clutter that lingers in our brains, getting all this nonsense out on to a page and then just getting on with it all.

In summary - hello, I apologise if I break any rules of the "bloggers handbook" I shall aim to educate myself to the best of my ability.
