All good blogs must come to an end.
I Now have thoughts about ending this experiment with the blog. It was helpful and I think useful at times, yet I now think it may be a crutch. I used it to say things that I could not other wise say. To talk about myself and start conversations that I could not start in real life. This virtual life is no life however. The thoughts and feelings that I wish to express now can not even come out on this blog. The blog has lost it's magic for me. The words that I wish to put down I know will make it back to the person they are about. This was never meant to bring anything but joy to others, yet I know a few times that it has offended people. Wither by my own faults or theirs. The pain has been dealt. I pushed it off and now see another coming. I start to speak these words yet feel I shouldn't so hold them back. I chock on them and can't be myself. If I can't be honest here then I am not honest anywhere in this world. I will never speak truth in real life if I think that virtual truth is just as good. So the path splits again. Which one to take, I know that some people enjoy this blog so I will put it to a vote.

blog is one of the things where I can express the feelings I can't express to my other friends and other people. Somehow, it eats up my time reading blogs of others (and enjoying it anyways) and writing on it rather than reading my books. But then again, I can blame nobody else but me coz I have the power to control myself when and when I should not read and post in this blog. Somehow it still does some magic for me...
Well... whether or not to continue this blog is up to you. I will give input though. I must say that I thoroughly enjoy reading this blog and catching a glimpse of the inside of Judge Whetten's mind. It doesn't happen very often, but I love it. You are such an awesome person, and this is one way for me to be able to stay in touch with that. At the same time, if you feel that this is turning into a lie, I wouldn't go on with it.
In the end, it is up to you.
Man! I have become addicted to this blog! I enjoy your fantastic ability to paint a picture with your words. You are a great writer. I would be sad to not see your words anymore. Please find a way to be honest & kind, letting the chips fall where they may.
Blogging is my way of being true to myself. Having a personal blog made public sends you out there naked, when some people prefer you with clothes on. (Then there are some of us who don't mind nudity - and might even enjoy it. I think I mean this figuratively...)
People will be offended no matter what you do. I haven't read anything here that I have found offensive, so I guess it's easy for me to point fingers and say that if they do, they're just reading it wrong.
You're still going to be you, and think the things you do. Are less people offended when you only think a certain way and not write about it?
I believe strongly in the right bloggers have to speak their mind. This is THE place to do it and if blogging obstructs that freedom of speech, what a great pity that is.
Whether or not you continue to write in here is a matter only you should have a say in, but, me, I enjoy the fact that you blog, and dangle your innards out there.
Be who you are, Judge, no matter what.
