Private Emotions, Public Forum


Privacy should enjoy its own respect. With so many intruders around, it sometimes becomes difficult to defend your own private space. This blogger has been a serious victim of the violation of privacy.

Blogging anonymously has enormous benefits. No one is there to keep tabs on you. You may simply type away at your own discretion without ever having to bother what anyone would ever think. You are invisible to the outside world!

But wait. There's a negative too. You are like the masked superhero who never gains public recognition for what he does. What good is saving the world if you are busy only saving your face!

But who can deny the cathartic experience of an unrestrained blog. Clinical psychology, for one, supports it. Pent-up emotions and feelings buried deep inside you must come up once in a while upto the surface. Expression is always better than repression.
