YOU are right, not too many are blogging nowadays since Twitter and Facebook took their time away from this blog format. Still is those two instant messaging space are not the way for me. It is the path for the "people in a hurry." To express messages instantly right immediately.
While if you want to follow Robert Frost's poem and you want to concentrate in the BLOG format which is the best of them all. You have the right to think whether you have accomplish the right keys. Oh yes there are KEYS. I am not a Yankee. I am not a Yankee fan. They don't have the key. Figure that Pres. Bush alma mater is Yale.

There are certain ideology you only want to share with "writers" you know people who can understand your skills and value.
You don't have to flaunt your skills to all your friends because that's totally definitely bragging. While when you write together with your blogging friends there is no sense of bragging there because all of you are into it, into the world of writings that you and your group can understand and manipulate at the same time. True real writers benefit from each other, from one another at certain point in their lives. Any successful writer offers gratitude from fellow writers because they all cope up that their arts is simply about "killing time" a past time and if you get lucky, only if you are fortunate enough to be in the "limelight" that your novel becomes as popular as you are or simply writing is an occupation that pays. Well that's what they think. WRITING is about blood, sweat and tears. You are using more energy from your mind by thinking. In writing you are using so many characters and plots that only one can manifest, only one > the writer is the one in total control of the action, movements and the flow of the story. In other words a writer is a person with multiple personality and multiple ideas. Can you beat that?
Some people think that writing is nothing and it is not considered to be an occupation. That if you have a day job considered that day job instead of writing because you wont be paid at all. However, that's not what happened to JK Rowling, Stephen King, Jules Verne, Stephanie Meyer, L James and other novelists. Those authors I mentioned are novelists indeed with millions of dollars in their bank. Too bad Jules Verne is no longer with us but his novels are always alive and the highlights of science fiction movies. I wish I'm Jules Verne. LOL! Maybe I AM. Jules Verne is a woman not a man! What do you think?
Writers go crazy sometimes. Painters go crazy and commit suicide. Just like Van Gogh who cut his ear because of depression. Later on committed suicide. He was depressed unable to sell his masterpiece. How many of his paintings that were sold in our generation today and they are worth millions of dollars? Too many! Too bad! He is not here with us. Why only honors are given when people are dead? Why is it always too late to give these great people of how important they are? What's wrong with you people?
Once again, the torch of light will be passed around and athletes and artists will be around the world to compete with their skills, specialized skills. Olympic torch starts today for SOCHI 2014? Really? In advance? Are you kidding me?
I'm seeing China right now and have to set up plates again on the table. What's the time now? Oh darn start to prepare something for dinner.
