Hello again! For a little while I was thinking about something which I really want to share with you all. Can a blog be treated as a diary? I don't know what people think, but what I have found out is that, blogs share the day to day events of people, their thoughts, views and all. So what a diary is? Isn't it quiet similar? You go on sharing your views and thoughts, each and every incidence of your daily life! Quiet similar to blogs right? But still I personally think a blog can never be a diary! It is because in a diary there's a privacy that people try to maintain. But, in blogs people want to share their views, ideas, emotions and experience. The only difference which I find between the two is the privacy factor, otherwise there's no difference between them. If you go through the blogs or diaries anyway both give you a clear picture of the person's thoughts, his/her character and many other aspects of the person. But still I feel that blogs only shows the positive sides of a person's character. That's where a diary is different! It shows every aspect of the person. Clearly, the person can be understood by only reading his diary. A Blog Can't Do That for sure!! probably that's why a diary maintains it's privacy.
To me diary writing is something which I enjoy not only because I feel free to express my emotions and feelings which really makes me feel better, but also the fact, that I write my diary in my mother tongue that is in bengali script. It's extremely satisfying, really feels good. Do you feel the same?
So ultimately my conclusion is "a blog is a blog it can't be a diary"
cheers :-)

Blog is sometimes better than diary ... diary changes you to an introvert but blog changes you an extrovert !! In diary you do not know how to control your emotions but in blogs , yes you can write in controlled manner ... last but not least if some body reads your diary and comments you will scold him for reading but now here when you see a comment for your blog you would be happiest !! am i right amar ?
ReplyDeleteyes buddy it's a real pleasure to get your comments! thanks.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree to what you say but my argument was not about which was better. rather I emphasized more on which matters what. Definately I wo'nt like someone to read my diary because I told you about the privacy factor :-)
