Re: [DDN] On Blogging and Other Stuff =Monday, 10-17-05
Monday Morning ~ Gracias Claude and Andy ~ Today is a full moon for October! The life that I live in is a real life and every time I go outside I know I am in a war zone. I live in the inner city in Downtown Sacramento where death is not a shocker. I do not walk outside into the streets thinking I am in the best of all possible worlds with butterflys fluttering around my heart, I know better. Drive-by shootings are not an unusual freak phenomena around here. Plus, keep in mind that I am the Moderator for a few progressive groups and sometimes I post to them when I post to the DDN Group. Some of my Members I have known online for years now, sometimes we talk on the phone and a few I have met in person. So it is not as anonymous as may first seem apparent and humor is a quality I have to help me cope with the seriousness of life. I will sometimes CC or BCC to others postings from the DDN Group in the hope that they will see a bigger picture of what is happenng online. Some of us are isolated because of disability or live in rural areas... so I try to keep them 'in the loop'. I might choose a larger bold font to make it easier for certain people to actually read what I write better. And I do not want to scare anyone off from joining in with a Group because they feel they are not astute, clver or smart enough with degrees after their names I also work with recoverng dope addicts and sometimes we lose people to their chemical addiction either through re-entry into prison, them 'going out' back into a self-destructive lifestyle or on occasion one dies from a drug overdose. Many of us are fightng the drug war on a daily constnat basis. So life for me is never a very smooth business, but I do love life among the living! I see the blogs and blogging as growing exponentially as it brings about more and more worldwide connections and interconnections. I love the Internet because of its capability of bringing people together from all over the world and from different cultures who never ever would known of each other without the Communication Powers of the Internet. We find 'kindred spirits' and combat isolation via the Internet, though nothing replaces eye-to-eye and face-to-face conversational communictions. However, we must keep in mind that the text word alone on a computer screen leaves much to be desired as we cannot fully convey with only text word our tones, our emotions, our states-of-mind. But is try... I do try. The beauty of life is in its diversity and the power of life is in its harmony. Help Build Bridges, Not Borders! Peter S.
