Postings
Finally Ana, taking time out of her personal and professional life to give a comment to this blog, told me that I have lately been too focused on the war, that my blog is political.
Of course I am the first one surprised by that: My opinions, although with an obvious bias, were just answering to the current situation, much more as an editorial on newsworthy events than a political expression.
And I remember that for a long part of my life, as a student, I was apolitical - as a matter of fact, I was on a student association that was non-profit, apolitical and non-discriminatory.And really, if you are not political when a student, when are you going to be?
But recent events may have forced this out of me - this need to be so vocal about things and events. And then I remember that, yes, as a matter of fact my latest tasks have implied a bit of that: taking a stand, asking for answers, risking a little bit more than just a bad night.
I don't think of this blog as political, though. Opinionated perhaps, but not even much - long posts are scarce around here.
Time to focus on other things, then.
Comments
Well, I agree that the majority of your posts have been focused on politics, but that's fact, not opinion. And my thoughts are this: if that's what's on your heart and you find fulfillment in expressing these things, then by all means, continue to do so! (I'm facing the same conflicts in turning the focus of my blog to my faith.)
Like Ana, I'm always curious to know what else is going on in your life, so if you are so inclined to indulge us, awesome! :D Bring it on! But if you're happiest supplementing your usual commentary instead of replacing it, that's fine with me, too. :)
