Blogging

I don't understand personal diary blogs. I don't have the ego for it. I have a hard enough time convincing myself to post here occasionally.
Blogs should be for sharing information; for educating others and stimulating thought and exchanging ideas.
I don't understand these personal blogs that drone on about someone's misfortunes and screwed up relationships or their latest shoe purchase.
I can kind of see a teenager or even a 20 yr old writing about their personal life & problems publicly on a blog, but once you're in your 30's, you're too old for that. If you're over 30 and still needing to regularly spill your guts to the world on a blog about your messed up life and personal problems, you've got more problems than you even realize and you seriously need a therapist or something.

What makes a person think that the rest of the world needs to hear about their very ordinary life? Is he or she writing so that strangers can pat them on the back and say "there, there Dear, everything will be alright" ?
Stop wasting bandwidth with narcissistic whining and complaining and 'woe is me' crap or your latest date or shopping venture. Get over yourself. Accept the fact that your life just isn't that interesting or important to people outside your family and circle of friends.
Everyone has problems - Yours aren't unique, and many people have problems a lot worse than you.

If you want to write, keep a diary, fine - But do it for yourself and keep it private. That's what keeping a diary or notebook of your thoughts is all about.
And, next time you get the urge to post personal details about your mundane life for the world to read, please don't. Call a friend or make an appointment with a therapist - cuz feeling like you need to put all this personal stuff out there isn't a sign of a healthy mind.
