tonight i restart documenting the stories and event and thought that happen in my life.
It's been a while since I did this. But now i'm back as i recently watched a TED talk on how we should converse. One of the points that the presenter made was that we, as society have become to divided and hence we get offended when we are faced with someone who doesn't things the same way we do.
Hence we should start to listen to others more, and if we really want to express our thoughts on subject matters, we should start writing a blog of our own. This is why I've come back to blogging. Primariliy because i have started to increasingly feel that facebook and other social media platforms are not safe spaces to talk, share and discuss personal views.
I have started to feel that I judge others who share their oppinions about things that I may not really agree with. SO I dont want to see those things reemerge in my news feed all that time. Also I don't want to end up on the other end of this conundrum either. I don't want to be unfriended or unfollowed because i may have said something that may have annoyed or offended someone else.
This is why I've returned to blogging, where i can talk about things that I feel are personal and worth writing about. I want to create content and maybe even share with others. I think this will also help me improve my writing abilities. SO there's that.
