Serious Blogging

May 1, 2015 Tony Burgess 10 Comments

I like to have fun while blogging, its cool to have a good time blogging in community. However, I have a serious side and my blog at times will be newsy and more information driven. A part of my philosophy is to be relevant and to post about the events of the day. Current issues that are in the news and the blogosphere are important things to me as a blogger. I am a news junkie and there is a lot going on in the world that affects us all and I want to share it with you.

To me what happens in the world is interesting. There is drama of all sorts in reality. Sometimes you can’t escape from the situation of the world that surrounds you. I guess as I get older my blog posts will have a more serious tone. Friends I need you to remind me of the fun side of blogging where you find the less serious things in life to share.

Say It Differently

May 1, 2015 Tony Burgess 6 Comments

We all struggle with the proverbial foot-in-mouth thing that gets us into trouble. Everyone says something that they don’t mean at times. Its a part of that terminal condition of being human and making mistakes. A friend reminded me how everyone wishes they could turn back time and do things differently or say things differently at least. The best thing one can do is say you are sorry and try not to do it again. Then there are times when you shouldn’t say anything at all.

One thing I like about the folks blogging here is that there is more actual blogging going on. I am a fan of a good original post and you can find it here. Can I say the platform is more mature and it fosters greater discussion and understanding.

This Thing Called Blogging

April 29, 2015 Tony Burgess 3 Comments

I think this thing called blogging is a great way to share a thought you have in the moment. For me its a way of chronicling the events of my life. There are times when I have to say something and to get feedback from people outside my head. It’s important to have a creative outlet where your voice can be heard.

All I hope is that I have something people are interested in hearing. My experience with blogging is one where there is something worth posting about if you pay attention. I tend to take a “breaking news” approach to my posts where I want to blog in the moment. Some folks like to accumulate thoughts and ideas and do one big post but for me if I don’t get it out there it will just disappear.

I do appreciate the contemplative approach to many bloggers here. They are thoughtful, deliberate and focused about what they post and it shows. Maybe I can get there one day.
