My first post in my first blog.
"I'm not exactly sure where to start."
Wow. How profound. How many other people do you think have started their blogs or even handwritten journals with that same old phrase? If that's the case, it disturbs me a little that I can't find it in me to be a little more unique than that. I've always prided myself on being a unique person; an individual with original ideas and thoughts; a person who's tried very hard not to follow the crowd, the fads, the "what's hot now". Not that I like the things I like or think the way I do to intentionally be different or anything. I've never thought of myself as a "rebel", per say. I simply know what I like and I know my own mind, so regardless of what anyone else thinks, I stand by my individuality.
Does that make sense?
I haven't perused very many blogs at all in the time I've been on the internet, so I'm not sure what everyone else does with theirs. I think with mine I'm just going to tell what major things happen to be on my mind during the course of the day. It might not even be every day. Hell, I doubt anyone will even read all this. LOL
I'm not promising it will be interesting, just honest. I'm not looking for advice. I just want to write down my thoughts and feelings, and maybe find a few people who can relate. That's all I've ever wanted out of life; for people to just understand me. It seems like nobody understands where I'm coming from, and it almost makes me feel like I'm from another planet or something. I'm unique, but I'm not that different. I may not follow the crowd, but I respect everybody's right to like the things they do and feel the way they feel. I may not believe in the same things most people do, or agree with a lot of what goes on in the world, but it really shouldn't be that difficult to find people who relate to that.
In the meantime, I guess I'm alone in my world.
I am The Infidel.

I would say, all in all, this is a good way to start. I think it is also good to march to your own tune, or exist in your own world because at least then you usually have a good idea of what's going on if nothing else.
A good blog is thought-provoking, well-written, and cool, in some indefinable sense of "I know it when I see it." Congrats, you have a good blog!
