Twitter or blog?

If this was a tweet I could say "Thought? I don't have one", but that does not cut it as a blog. That's also why Twitter asks "What's happening?". It is always easier and seemingly more interesting to describe what is going on in your life than to write something that has a redeeming quality - like a clear thought or a fun or happy one, anything that enlightens beyond stuff that goes on in the background, despite the fact that we are tweeting about what goes on in the background most of the time. "I am going to . . . ", "I am working on . . ", "I am done with this . . .", "I am looking forward to . . . ", "I remember . . .".

Of course, you have to stop worrying whether anyone cares. Just jump into the space to see how you can fill it with who you are. Pretentious maybe, but not something that you should necessarily worry about, as long as you don't expect to sell a lot of coffee (if you happen to roast) or get a lot of readers, as long as that is not what you are doing it for. It is just another outlet to cry for freedom to shout of happiness, to be part of it all. Success is in the eyes of the beholder. Since I carry the eyes, why would I care? Giving away coffee works fine for me most of the time. The rest of the time, I am pretty happy making pictures.
