I'm a little disappointed. I had hoped to hear some feedback from you guys. Was it too boring to read? I know the hum drum of politics is bringing everybody down these days, but seriously does nobody care about what needs to be done? It requires interest to solve problems. Get involved! besides voting, you can voice your opinions and show your support for a candidate, and if you're like most and you don't support either, then at least voice why or why not. i'm not saying everyone does it, but most people are giving up and forgetting the true importance of what's going on. Can anyone predict the future? Does anyone know where the economy will finally fall out? What's going to happen then? So much uncertainty lies ahead, and this country needs interested citizens working togethere to discover new solutions to age old problems. And I say new solutions becasue the solutions used thus far have only temporarily fixed the problems haunting society today. Notice a trend of prosperity, followed by recession, followed by prosperity? It repeats itself through history. History can teach you a lot. But modern day politicians refused to look at it. Or is it that they depend too much upon it? Are conservative republicans so delicately attached to the old ways and old times that they refuse to find new solutions? Or evolve in modern day society? When you look at it, most politicians are very old, and though I have nothing against that alone, I will say that my past experiences with old folks have never been good when we speak of modern things. My dad can't use a computer, and I'm constantly showing my mom how to operate electrical machinery, such as IPODs and game systems. Relating this to politics, I've heard that McCain can't send a e-mail! Sure, I'm not that computer savvy either, but most of the population knows the basics of the internet and computers.
But I've gone off on a tangent.
Sorry. My point is that we need to involve ourselves more in politics.

I tend not to comment on your blogs, because most of them I've seen 1) don't have very interesting titles. This one, for instance, indicates absolutely nothing about the content of your blog. It, in fact, reeks of a introduction post, which can't be blog posts to begin with. 2) Of the blogs I have read, none of them strike me as particularly important. I mean, it seems you ramble about pointless things, without really making a point. Like this one... what's the point? and 3) your formatting isn't all that good. It's really painful to try to read a big block of text, especially after a long day. This entry is a big block of text. Try adding some paragraphs.

All those problems can be remedied with some practice, right? So keep trying. You'll hit a formula that works.

At least you are trying. Try to focus on one topic in your blogs and make them unique. Do some research about things that interest you then write some blogs. Also why don't you make an effort to comment on other people's blogs?

Keep trying you will get it ok! Don't get discouraged and all the above comments are advice. None of us are trying to hurt your feelings just trying to help you. so just keep trying and you will get more reads. Like Mvenus stated space out your paragraphs like how this comment is. Hang in there.

thanks so much for your consolation. It helps. I felt somewhat stung after reading the comment i got back from mvenus, but i had to tell myself it was just constructive critique. haha
I think that the more i practice blogging, the better it will get and easier it will become for me.

Sorry. My comments tend to be... sharper when I'm tired. And I had a really really long day today. I was just trying to help, and really didn't mean to offend :(
