First

I have often wondered how average bloggers get noticed. Get "read".

So many come to this outlet, the internet, for answers, for a voice that is silent to be read.

I doubt that many will read. And if they do, they will most likely lurk and go about their merry way.

In here, I will ask, I will speak and I will just, be.

If you agree, if you disagree, I would love to know. I think that being ignored, being overlooked is worse than hatred. At least when you are hated, you invoke some type of sentiment. But when you are ignored, the need for acknowledgement is crushed. Do we not all long to be acknowledged? Do we not all long to have some importance in the world?

I am not mother Theresa. Nor could I ever aspire to be. I am much too needy, greedy and human. But I do wish to change the world in some way. May it be by making someone smile once, or think.

What are your aspirations?
