As I look
back upon the past blogs that I have sat down and written, I realize that
blogging wasn’t as strange as I thought it would be.
To me the most difficult aspects of
writing one, was not only reading occasionally lengthy articles, but also sharing
my beliefs and feelings in a somewhat open forum. That is not to say that I am
shy, just wary of mistakes I could have made, therefore, allowing others to see
them.
The most interesting posts to me
would have to be the last three blogs. I quickly came to despise the writings
of Hedges’s and Carr’s writings. I am not necessarily a conservative, but when
liberal’s spout “knowledge” and “facts” It starts to bother me. Conservatives
do similar things, but when a writer lists off statistics that have no backing
it makes me question the writer’s motives. Therefore, writing a response blog
to their articles allowed for me to express my overall dislike of both authors.
Finally the last blog allowed for me to compare writers who were neither
liberal nor conservative simply authors with a valid point, to authors who
seemed to have a political agenda/bias.
Furthermore, my overall attitude
towards reading and writing has not really changed. I have always loved
readings novels; however, writing while I like to think I am proficient at
being creative and writing a good essay, though while not being the best editor,
has not changed. I won’t try to continue on with blogs or essays unless
required to.
