For a long time I tried not to talk too much about politics or current event sort of subjects on le blog. I just didn’t want to beat a horse that everyone else was beating. I go off on some things from time to time but I’ve always kept the focus of the blog squarely on myself.
These days, I find less and less need to fight my personal demons in this space. And while I’ll continue to blather on about my personal development, I feel it is time to start branching out. I think I have a good perspective on much of the happenings in the world. And as I love to harp, I’m good at seeing subtle but often important distinctions in things.
I guess what I’m saying is you, dear reader, should expect to start seeing more current event type rants here. Not everyday and certainly not the focus but I like to think it will add a good mixture to the chronicle that is my life.
Go for it! I don’t post about current events often but every so often I feel the need to vent about one thing or another. One of the reasons I started to blog was to have a place to do that without all the layers of conflict that can arise from politics on FB.
Love it! I ended up totally clamping down on these on Facebook before the elections. I need to start blogging more:) But more and more I can’t tolerate stupid anymore! I am on an unfriending rampage and finally am in a place where I don’t feel guilty about it anymore.
Love it! I stopped commenting on politics on Facebook around the elections, because it got to be everyone was. But now I’m getting back into it, especially on my local paper’s websites. I also got over feeling bad about unfriending people, cause I just can’t tolerate stupid anymore! Now if I could just get myself to blog more 🙂
