me and blogland I
Who am I trying to kid? Getting on a blog and stating that I do not like what many bloggers are devoted to is risky isn’t it? I suppose not much as long as fellow bloggers are not dedicated ones. Who could dare to put their beloved, survival stream down? Oops! Sorry.
In his book, Games People Play, Eric Berne points out a life game named the Alcoholic. Unlike the common understanding the game is not about people who drink alcohol, but it is about the role people take in their lives which is similar to alcoholics.
Now, an alcoholic could be a devoted blogger, and I ,since I do not like blogland and blogging, could become the persecutor wife, who does go to the blogland only to put a hard time on her most significant, “ …under the nose of Mrs. White, who is powerless to protest. Actually it is just because she will be “powerless” to protest the Mrs. White consents to the whole arrangement, since she is just as anxious for the game to continue, with herself in the role of Persecutor, as Mr. White is with himself in the role of Alcoholic (79).
I suppose that is a beware sign.
There are many things that I do not understand about blogging. I do not understand the rush of it. One would suppose people who are good in blogging are good in any social activities, but that is not true. In fact, the majority of bloggers have problems with interacting with real people in their real lives. (Please do not jump on me,,,, I mentioned the majority and not all). Heaven knows how many people live on the planet Earth because the bloggers number of people is too many to be countable, and I gather they are not even one tenth of the whole population of the planet Earth.
Secondly, I do not understand the devotion (if there is such a word in English) of it. People treat blogging as if it is their road to freedom. As if it is their required Oxygen to stay alive. As if it is “every thing” for them. Now, do not I sound like the persecutor Mrs. White?
Some one may ask, “So what satisfies you?” interesting enough I do not have an answer. Not for now that is for sure.

I swing in phases of liking and not liking blogging. Overall i love it as it has added to my life. I guess it is my expression.
If you dont like blogging, why blog?
