Problems and the real world
Sharing concerns in blogworld sometimes reaps better benefits than in the public world.
Perhaps it is easier to express oneself anonymously than in real-life.

I say what I can, not what I think. I might be what you think, but I do not think what you might.

yeah? so what's your problem?
come on.. sbill the beans!
My entourage does not tolerate misspeling.
If you had typed: "sBiLL ThE PeAnS", a response could have been warranted.
you do not get it...
if u ask an egyptian they will tell you SBILL Z BEANS.. and thus it's true that a "P" is converted to a "B" but a "B" is never converted to a "P".
Thus if you gotta do it, then you say.. Blease But the Bebsi Bottle in the Bucket.. not Blease But the Bebsi Pottle in the Pucket!!!
Hey blogger Happy 2008 to you from all at GO! Smell the flowers - we really enjoy your participation and as you've gathered we encourage more to download their feelings as and when it suits them...
7 days published an articles last year about life coaching say 'you'd get more value having coffee with an neighbour' - possibly TRUE we replied - but how many neighbours open their doors to us in Dubai and offer us coffee now???
Blogging & social networking can help plug that gap with appreciation and an outlet for discussion...
SO, BRAVO to you and lets make it happen in 2008! We'll give this place more depth than the foundations of Burj Dubai! :0)
*I disagree, Buj: an intellectual Egyptian might swap the P for a B in times of need. One might even opt for a Pipsi rather than a Bibsi. Times have change-ed, I pelieve.
what a load of pull.
Anyway, its easier to tell your troubles to those you dont know, to those that dont really know you. Not necessarily being anon on your blog.. Its just easy to talk to those about something and not worry about being judged..
"Perhaps it is easier to express oneself anonymously than in real-life."
hell yeah :)
it does have it's positives....most notably lotsa similar thinking/feeling folks out there, who can throw in their two fils worth of help....minus all that 'judgement' crap.
It all depends how far your prepared to go in disclosing 'the problem'. If it's terribly private, then I would suggest you post it anonymously or create another blog (i.e. wordpress) which isn't linked. Failing that, there's always Post Secret!
jayne, if I went public with this, it would be of great public interest (wink, wink) but I like to keep a low profile, spesh when things aren't sorted out yet.
Sometimes when one discusses stuff with people in real life it doesn't always give the same satisfaction as when blogged about.
I posted this to hint at the reason for my disappearance ;-)
Thanks for visiting. I discovered "postsecret" though your blog ages ago, actually, and read it from time to time.
