The reason to "blog"

Several of my friends have been blogging for some time. I failed to understand the purpose or pleasure in blogging initially. My perspective changed when I was introduced to Facebook. I began to realise the common need of all human beings - we all want to be in touch with other human beings, want to be acknowledged, want to be heard and seen. Blog is just another form of the same thing, giving us another space to show off, to share, and ultimately, want to be heard and seen. I have to say that I have grown to like blogging. This is my 4th entry in two days, although, I am on holiday. Time will tell if this blog spot will meet my deepest desire.
