Gosh, Blog addict! - the usual expression of my friend, Noel, every time he sees me in front of a computer, surfing the net, checking e-mails, updating facebook, or simply reading my courseware.
Honestly, I have developed an "addiction" to it. Yes, Blogging became my way of life... At first, I don't intend to become a blogger, but after being inspired by Spanky "Manila Boy" Enriquez, I embraced blogging wholeheartedly. In fact, I already required my students to open and start the addictive world of blogging.
I think there is nothing wrong about blogging. Just make sure that blogging doesn't interfere the usual YOU!
They said "Life is about experience"... I say, Experience should be shared, so as to inspire others, after all, experience is the best teacher!
In today's modernity, we are living in a different community - a global diaspora!
Reaching this global diaspora requires the exploitation of what Information Technology provides us and Blogging is one of them! Blogging brings us to a whole new level of connecting, communicating and influencing the world. Yes, wether we like it or not, we influence each others. This is manifested by the comments, ratings and reviews we post to almost everything in the internet. And this "little voices" can stir an emotion, spark a personal revolution or even turn one's perspective 360 degree! Thus as bloggers, we are the new legislators of the world, the modern literati, and as such, we are given responsibility to nourish the world with knowledge. These knowledge they need are the insights we draw from the experiences - the encounters and observations we have with the rest of the creation - as documented, posted, and shared in our respective blog sites.
Hence, blogging, or being tagged as a blog addict is something we should never be ashamed of. Blogging is a personal choice, an embraced responsibility, a commitment and a promise to make the world better for humanity! So to all of you out there, what are you waiting for? Share those captured moments to the world! Start blogging TODAY!
To end, let me quote JC Buendia's words in his multiply entry, "I'm reminded to use my camera more often just like my dear friend Kimi who happily captures every friend's heartbeat for Multiply."
