Anonymity

Why do people write blogs?? To express views; but why do it under some pseudo name? To maintain anonymity?

I think this is the main cause of starting a blog. But eventually is this anonymity retained? After some comments on our blogs, we give out our email address, make friends and end up having a non-virtual, real-life coffee. To all such people, why go incognito?? Start off with your real names...makes more sense, doesn't it?

An attempt to begin

I have never been one of those who have religiously kept a journal. My efforts to keep a regular account of my interpretation of this world started since I was 15. Since then I am a proud author of 20-25 entries (that includes all the times that I got inspired by the late Anne Frank). Needless to say my attempts have been injected with year(s) long breaks; and I am sure this electronic attempt (given it looks more attractive [?] than traditional white paper and pen) will have the same fate. So why bother? The thing is I often find it very difficult to find some scapegoat who will listen patiently to my personal philosophies. Writing down helps in getting these thoughts out my brain as I need free cells for more important causes.

So, here's to the next 25 posts over the next 7 years!
