Practice Blog

I am not sure how I feel about blogging. It sounds like a good idea in theory but I have reservations. Writing my thoughts on paper can be risky, but not nearly as risky as placing my thoughts online where they can be seen by anyone. I am careful to edit some of my thoughts depending upon my audience. I do not do this to be deceitful or disgenuine, but to protect the feelings of those with whom I converse. I realize that my opinions differ from many of my friends and that the topics of our discussions can be hot topics. I believe in everyone's right to have their own opinions respected regardless of whether or not I agree with them. I don't always feel that I get that same respect in return. I also am not sure how comfortable I am with others knowing ALL of my thoughts. I think it might overwhelm some of my more conservative friends.
