The last shall be first.

So this is my first post. It seems fitting that I explain why I set this up. I've recently begun to find other people's blogs interesting, so I decided (gradually) that I'd like to have one of my own. It never occurred to me until just now, however, that there's an inherent paradox involved in blogging. At least in my case. The things I most want to write about, the things I most want people to read, I can't write down in public. Because then those things will be read by everyone, including people that shouldn't read them. Except those people are really the only people that would be interested in reading a blog of mine. And they're also (some of them) the people who supposedly know everything about me. But clearly don't. So really there's apparently more like 3 paradoxes inherent to blogging. At least in my case.
Scratch that. Four: This will, in all likelihood, be my final post.
