I’ve Got This Blog
So, I’ve got this blog. It’s my place to write whatever I want. It’s a political, satirical blog where sacred cows do not exist. A visitor to my blog has every right to expect some witty, sharp, acerbic, article on the current events of the day. But, I don’t always feel like writing something political.
I’m not a writer. Never went to school for writing, never dreamed of being a writer, but do enjoy writing. My thoughts are scattered like wispy clouds on a windy day. Most times I can stay on track, while at other times, my thoughts get derailed like an out of control locomotive.
Logic is not my strong suit, and I tend to write from the heart, rather than the brain. I’m not a deep thinker. I’m more of a surface thinker. Not that I never delve into the deep realm of thoughts, but more often than not I’m in shallow intellectual water. Snorkeling, rather than scuba diving.
There is a wealth of material to draw from the political realm. Anyone with a smattering of intelligence should be able to put together a paragraph of interesting facts and opinions about the day’s events. Writing a blog is not rocket science. Consistency is the key. Have something new everyday, the blog gurus tell you. Always have new material. Readers will come back to see what you’re up to, as long as they can read something new on each visit. With that advice in mind, I sit here and type four paragraphs (thus far) of fairly uninteresting drivel.
When does the good stuff come? I’d like to know the answer myself. This evening, I don’t believe anything of literary, or political value will be written. I’m just tired of the whole political realm. It’s so frustrating to see elected officials act as if they’ve been ordained by God, rather then elected by their constituents. The idea of service to country has been left somewhere in a smoky back room, while the idea of staying in office has moved into the main dining room of political fare.
Anything to get reelected. All’s fair in love and political war. Promise than anything, then once elected do whatever you want. You’ve got two, or six years do get away with murder, and if you’re lucky, most of the seniors who voted you in will be long gone before you lie to the people again. It’s disgusting.
Tomorrow, I hope to jump back on the political bandwagon. But, for tonight, I will say to you my dear readers, the same thing I say to my friends on Twitter, “May the good Lord bless you all, and God Bless America!
BTW – Look me up on Twitter – @dazedjourney
Good night.
