Woo. New blog.
Almost everyone over the age of thirteen, and under the age of forty, has made a blog during these modern times. With days filled with electronics, the majority of them relating in some where to computing, or the internet, it is not wonder that mankind is becoming consumed by social networking sites, forums, and blogs. There is however, one difference between this blog and the thousands of others written across the world; it is mine.

It seems so much easier to type onto a keyboard, of a laptop or computer, than it is to write information down. It is with logical reasoning that we can assume this is the reason why people choose to use computers, rather than notepads when intending to remember information. Modern technology is simply easier to use. In most cases anyway.
Human beings, especially the more influenced younger generations, are more dependant on technology than ever before. In previous years life did not depend on technology, whereas today, it does. Isn’t it intriguing how we can take so much from so little? The internet, such a little thing really, but yet so hugely compactive.
It reminds me of my favourite quote this week; “Never was so much owed by so many, to so few…” Which was said by Winston Churchill, in 1940. I think perhaps this is true in so many senses of the word. Not just owing our lives to soldiers, but to inventors, scientists, mathematicians, teachers, doctors, police and so many others that have helped to shape our society to be the way it is today. It seems so odd to me that people forget the things others have done to them, they forget the fact that a doctor saved their life as a baby, or a teacher taught them the values of life. They just storm ahead, not caring for the things that have been done for them. Alas, it is often these people, rather than those that they owe, that prosper. They prosper because they believe they owe no one but themselves anything. If everyone went about as such, then the whole world would be ruined, not just corrupt people.
I thank all the known deities for those non-corrupt people. We owe our lives to them, just as we owe our lives to soldiers, sailors and all defenders of our country’s.

I’m done ranting for now. Let it be known that this blog is a storage for all my wild, rampant thoughts, as well as the insane plot bunnies that storm through my brain at the most random of times. A blog is not a diary, for me at least, but a place I type on a whim, allowing my fingers to spew whatever comes out of them. As long as it (sort of) makes sense.
For now though, it’s time to face reality, escape from my hidden place in the internet, and get back to day-to-day life.
