Respect the Blog & Respect the Blogger

By Harsha
I find it amazing how people read blogs all the time but they never really respect the blog or the blogger. Sure they sometimes relate or they comment but do any of them actually take the time to go above and beyond and stop and just think about the idea behind the blog?
I honestly feel that blogs are respected but only on the surface level.
People don't realize that blogs aren't meant for the outside world; they're meant for the blogger as a way of release and as a way to empty out the mind in a form other than paper and pen (because the possibility of losing the paper/diary is just a stain on your head and constantly bugs you).
Sometimes when people read blogs, they judge the person. They judge the person's feelings. They judge the person's thoughts. Worst of all, they judge the person.
Blogs aren't there for people to read and just comment and judge; they are emotional and psychological release tools.

"Doors inside my head
Bolted from within...
Memory of the one
Who lived inside my skin

I can tell you why
People go insane"

Shadow On The Sun - Audioslave


The doors are bolted inside their head for a reason: so others can't get in.
Once people do open those doors, the person feels violated and "[goes] insane" because they are scared about society's reaction to this new information.

Respect the blog & Respect the blogger.
Keep in mind that blogs are meant for the blogger and not for outside critics.
Respect the blog & Respect the blogger.
