Blogging certainly makes me feel better, but for me, it's a little different. Since I am so far away from "home" and friends, I use it as a way to keep in touch and stay connected. A few rants here and there helps with everyday stress, too. :)
I can see the point about blogging making one feel better in general, though. It's a nice medium to vent pent up feelings. We've had this medium all along, though, it was called a "journal". :/ remember those archaic things? On Tue, Mar 11, 2008 at 8:19 AM, Erika L.
