Alrite, its official. No one reads my blog anymore. Haha… well at least that’s what my counter tells me.

In that case, I have no time to wallow in self pity. I have got to do something before my blog becomes a ghost town and then I’ll have to tear it down to make way for something newer and better. I’m a true blue Singaporean aren’t I? =D

Then again, I set up this blog for myself and it is in this tiny space in cyberworld where I can be self indulgent. A place where I can express a fraction of the thoughts that run thru my mind every day. However can I truly write what I want here without inhibition or censorship?

The answer is no. Because if someday, someone were to stumble across this blog and finds something offensive, I could be in real deep trouble. A blog could be private, especially when no one visits it or when one puts restrictions on viewership. Still, it is not the same as a pen and paper diary which you could hide under lock and key, in which only you have access to. The World Wide Web is open to just about anyone who has internet access and because of that, whatever one posts, one has to take responsibility for it. Esp in this tiny little red dot, cuz there’s absolutely no way you can hide.

But the question is why is no one reading my blog? Is everyone so busy? Or have the content of my blog caused people to shy away or possibly pissed them off? Its probably the latter being that I always unwittingly offend people, so why should my blog be any different. To my dear friends, if there’s something that makes u uncomfortable, please please let me know. If there is one thing Im afraid of, it would be cold war. And believe me, this blog was never meant as a weapon to lash out at others, but its primary purpose is to encourage and uplift whoever reads it. If it ain’t fulfilling its purpose, tell me and I promise u, I’ll definitely do something about it.
