I was going to write more but I find myself freshly challenged after reading Gordon’s blog on my return. I find myself reading his post, Another Dead Link, and find myself asking myself the question ‘Who am I blogging for?’
It’s an important quetion to me as I have said lots of times that I blog for me. I don’t wish to blog for others. I genuinely set this up as a blog for me to write, to reflect, to have something to look back on; but I now an wondering if I have fallen into the trap that Gordon outlines, the trap of wondering what others will think, the trap of thinking of ‘ratings’ and the trap of ending up writing for others, to entertain and to amuse.
I wonder if I have started to go this way, especially of trying to entertain and think of what others may be thinking as I write. If this is going to be genuinely for me to reflect and look back on to see how my journey progresses (or not!) then I need to remember the root purpose of my ramblings.
How do I know, though, if I stray forom the personal reflective ‘me’ blog.

🙂 You put it online because you wanted to share. (yes?) In that sense you do blog for others, but not necessarily for their amusement/entertainment or for ratings (pride?).When I found out that gmail had an alert feature tied into google to notify of new google search results I didn’t hesitate to register for “youmissedthepoint”. But alas, I’m not famous and loved by all yet.
