Hail Blogger! (To Us Who Bleed)
It has been a year or so since I was ushered into this
superb sphere called blogging. Within that span of time, I have been led to the depths of many minds, and in turn some have been patient enough to delve into my own abyss.
A myriad of friends have surprised me with their diligence, intellect, abstractions, vocabulary, and amusing material. Unfortunately, on the other limb, some have startled me for contrapositive reasons, shallowness and plagiarism being the main causes.
In my perspective, the most successful blogs are those whose words come from the very core of the author’s heart and soul, the same words that are the plasma that stream through their veins… and their blogs being the gushing open wounds that become the outlet for such. If everyone wrote that way, there would be no more imitations, no literary theft, no more clichés*, no shallowness, nobody to try to impress, no writer’s block. There would only be passion, a heart, a brain, guts, literary DNA – allow me to deem that there is such, and there would only be your own rare blood and blog, coexisting with millions of other unique living bloggers in the bloggalaxy.
Redundant it may sound, but I have to say that through blogging I have learned much. Through blogging, I have witnessed manifold breeds of writing, mentalities, priorities, emotional states, and even oddities, and through blogging I have beheld humanity’s literary anatomy.
May we all continue to bleed and live.
May we endure writing. Hail Blogger!
*No More Cliches
is a phrase not plagiarized, but embraced.
From incredible writers Octavio Paz and Franz.

my blog. there isnt much to it that would seem like an unfounded knowlege. at times they are facile and most of the time sick. but mir you never seem to accuse me as most cyber-vermins would. and im just glad. happy even. to find you name there. a comment. a kiss. a hug. just makes it worth the risk. god mir you have a lot to write about and no matter how earthbound they are or esoteric man gani hehe they are amazing. i seem to follow every thought or word and yes they are as brilliant and nicely-put as notes put together in an unaccompanied Bach really nice hope you will not tire and nver loose the passion i am your biggest fan hehe i am an admirer amongst a myriad of others only too shy or proud to admit . . kisses and love.

Your blog. You bled in there, and you continue to do so… that’s why I always come back.
The comments. They are anesthetics to both of us, making sure the bleeding doesn’t hurt.
Even this particular comment you just left… it evidently has your DNA, Franz… and although the part about my writing is quite amplified, I’m just glad our friendship is the kind that’s past flatteries. So I just have to thank you for being there and acknowledging me and whatever flows inside me.
