I wish I was smarter. (Note that I didn't say I wish I was smart! That's self awareness for you!) No one can read other people's blogs without feeling a little embarassed about their own inane scribblings. And the worst thing is, I would find my own blog stale reading as compared to some others.
Argghhh!!!! Why wasn't I born smarter?! And while I'm at it; why aren't I born richer, prettier, taller, slimmer, and with more hair!
That's the thing about us humans isn't it. We're never satisfied. The grass is always greener on the other side of the road. There'll always be more beautiful and greener pastures. We're never stop trying to keep up with the Joneses. But let's not miss the tree while looking at the forest.
My point is: Stay focussed. Let's not forget what the original plan is, and stick to it. The reason why I started a blog was not because I'm a great and prolific writer whose gems of wisdom will have the world eating out of my hand. It was my one stop towards self actualisation. It was my form of catharsis. It was for my own personal growth as a person. It was to share my life and the life's lessons with my friends. So let's not lose sight of that goal.
I may not be the wittiest writer around (although I wish I was). But as far as my original objectives, I think I've done pretty well for myself so far. And I still have my loyal fans (I love you too eWee and Wee-san!)
