Because You Care

Thank you my friends and bloggers for inspiring me to write. Blogging had always been therapeutic for me. Through blogging, I could let the whole world know how I feel for the time being, and who I am, in my writings. I found the right way to express myself, get accepted and appreciated. Yeah, I am shallow once in a while. I am grinning as I started to type this post. Once, I was asked by an observant neighbor if I am not bored of being alone. I admired her for taking notice of me. I advised her I am not alone in thoughts. Besides, as I went on with my reply with a smile, my brain is busy to think of being lonely. She has bunch of kids to take care of while husband works. She has the habit of befriending everyone in the neighborhood. As if to solicit votes for a candidate, or simply to pass her time probably, after her household chores for the day.

I could not explain to her what I do after work because I might turn my room into an internet café. I am willing to spare some of my time to explain to her what I do. However, the computer jargons could be beyond her intellectual grasp. I am kind of lucky for learning English words that gave me the edge to communicate, be understood by the Word Wide Web readers. Although in college English was taught as subject with correct grammars. Once in a while I would rationalize the knowledge did not come overnight I spent burning my lamp reading novel pocket books. I had caused at least two old computers to break down beyond repairs to learn computer. The intricacy of internet jargons became a challenge for me to learn it. That is the beauty of having not enough budget and time to go to computer school. I learned it the hard way. It is why I cherished the result of my hard work.

Pocket book readings and net surfing had been my long time hobby. However the most fulfilling is how to put the words together. That is to create something out of my thoughts, simply referred to as ideas as tools for communications. How effective I am? I guess I am as effective, at par with other bloggers. The invites and comments I am getting from my friends and bloggers are truly uplifting. Of course, like some bloggers I do get some violent reaction. There was one guy who tried to befriend me. Later he started to dictate to me what I should write. What comments I should write on the forums I had participated in. Call it a pride but I deleted him. My reason for doing that, I have my freedom of expressions. As long as I am not driving someone to commit suicide, I am on the right track.

Thank you friends and bloggers! For making Her Highness smiles when events seem unfavorable. For providing a glimpse of light when the horizon gets a little dimmer. Most importantly for being there ... and letting me know… you care.

HI Jolly! Most of my friends have no understanding of blogging or writing. I find it absolutely amazing to connect with people all over the world and find that despite cultural differences, we all have the same needs, dreams, etc.

If English is your second language, I am floored at your excellent writing! How do you do that?

Also, thanks for the kind words you left on my blog site. I am enjoying meeting other bloggers.

Well said JPrincess! Never let anyone tell you what to write about because this is your blog, you can post whatever you want and if they have bad things to say about you, tell them to make their own blog and blabber there instead. Thank you for sharing your posts with us and thanks for being my friend. Although, I have been absent from time to time in the blog world, I just want you to know that I care too! :)
