I sat by the road

as the cars rolled over my toes

Scary.
I was just about to complain about Ken and he messaged.
He must have sensed it somehow.
I'm surprised he's still awake at this hour though.
And as i am typing this,
We are having an arguement about replying mails.
But as usual,
I think i'm gonna lose this arguement eventually.
That boy bullies all the time.

I have been really laggy in updating my blog.
Feeling kind of lazy these days and there is no urge to write.
Was discussing about blogging with someone a few days back and some interesting thoughts came to mind:
Why do people actually blog?
Some blog to share about their everyday happenings
Some blog to keep others updated about their live
Some use their blogs as a discussion platform
And others blog as a form of self expression
As for me, i think it is more of the latter.

Blogging gives me the opportunity to write and practise my language.
It takes me a fair amount of time to compose my posts each time but i realised that as i blog, it gets easier over time.
To write a good blog post isn't all that easy but what constitues a good blog post?
Is it the content?
Is it the flowery language?
Or is it something else?
In my opinion, a good post does not necessarily have to be long, flowing and full of pictures.
A good post is simply one that can evoke the same after thoughts and emotions within the writer while reading back.
A good post is one that can express the writer's feelings explicitly, even with a one liner.

So, next comes the question:
Does one need to have a good command of the language to be able to blog well?
My answer would be no.
All it takes to churn out a good post is to write with feelings.
The rest will follow naturally.
But one shouldn't only stick to a standard way of writing.
Exploring the array of writing methods spices up the blog.
Be it prose or poems, pictures or one-liners, standard writing or creative writing,
It all adds dimensions to a post.
In any case, i think anyone who puts their heart into writing will be able to come up with a decently good post.
