Blogging ain't easy

Today I had a startling revelation, all my preconceived notions regarding my writing skills came undone. I was given the task of writing a blog and the words just would not come out, I decided to plagiarize, but that was easier said than done. I struggled through the task and the fact that I had a deadline did not help either. I decided to start my Blogging career (better late than never!!!) on completing my task. For me it just made sense to evaluate my potential as a blogger and be very honest about my skills before I embark on other literary crusades. First lesson - It is easier to put down honest thoughts and emotions on paper, rather than ones that are trying to alter perceptions. If perceptions change as a natural consequence, then well and good. Second Lesson - KISS (Keep it simple stupid, thank David Marchenko for that ). Ok ran out of lessons too. Will keep updating my learnings on this new journey. Finally hats off to Twitter, used to think 140 words was too little to express myself, but trust me you can get your message in easily within that limit. Only if the damn thing allows me to log on. Anyways hats off to the mini blog !!!! Great things do come in small packages.
