Why Blog?

Why start a public diary? I can't really say, except, that sometimes I get these musings in my head and it seems a shame to waste them! Perhaps there are others that may want to read them. Perhaps, it just feels good to actually publish those thoughts instead of letting them fade away. Perhaps I have just been getting so much enjoyment out of other blogs that I read that it just seems like the thing to do, to join the crowd. How much detail should I include? How open should I be? These are thoughts I've wrestled with for some time. If I let this paralysis by analysis take over, I'll never accomplish anything! So, I'll just make it up as I go along. That's taking a risk for me, to not overthink what I am about to do. Nonetheless, here we go!
