There is something quite cathartic about sharing adventures and thoughts on the web. I have briefed research that describes how bloggers and gamers and Facebook users cannot connect with their peers and use social media as a way of bridging the gap of intimate relationships that they lack in our lives. Then another body of research can "prove" that social media outlets enhances relationships, self esteem, a feeling of connectedness with others and decreases feelings of isolation. So who "wins" the argument and what should I do about it?
I enjoy blogging, it gives me, an amateur writer, a taste of creativity and an outlet to share my kick ass adventures. I am not trying to create an inflated persona I am sharing who I am and celebrating my love of climbing with other rock addicts. I actually don't even care if anyone reads it. It's fun to throw together a story of my life and celebrate failures, successes and all lessons learned along the way.
