Seee Through......................

Why do I put all my most innermost thoughts on public view? Why is that I chat about the most private matters to complete strangers even in real life?

In conversations I find that people I tell about my past loves, failures, deficiencies, insecurities, etc identify and relate. They reciprocate and open up themselves. I make friends amazingly fast. You may respect someone who you think is perfect but you only really like them once you get to know them and complete transparency speeds up that process from years to hours. But why on the net where you don't necessarily make new friends through online journals?

Because anything I write can potentially be read by anyone I have to make sure that I have taken their views into consideration before I write something. This forces me to become less judgmental and more understanding. In writing about Madonna for example I have to think whether I would be comfortable when she reads the stuff. In order for me to be comfortable about her reading this I have to include her side as well. Because I have looked at stuff from other angles it means that in real life I'm far more understanding and less likely to take a biased view. Where I differ from others in my views I'm happy to stand my ground and explain why I differ rather than feeling I need to backtrack or apologise.
