With a Song in My Heart

I wrote this into the Short Sights Blog by mistake.

Felix culpa, perhaps.

Now I don't have to worry about finding something to say
for today's photography slot.

Perhaps it's worth repeating?


Ever so often I meet someone who thinks that blogging is a
complete hoot.
"So you have a blog?"
Their eyes twinkle with mischief.
"What's it about?"

A quick explanation...
photos... the odd recipe...
really talking about blogging is
not my cup of tea.

Worry usually sets in on my interlocutor's brow.

"You mean you don't TELL ALL???
You have to wear your heart on your sleeve
if you want people to read what you write.

That's NO USE!!!!"

Frankly telling all my personal business to absolute
strangers would never dawn on me.
I assume that they would find the trivia of
everyday life as mundane as I do.
My Facebook Friends keep moving about at a
ferocious rate and update everybody on where
they are at any blessed moment of the day or night.

Very odd...

People don't really understand that "public persona" isn't the same thing as the "real you." Just a facet.
