One Random thought after the other made me check this blog of mine again. Its just so easy to loose momentum when blogging. and ill tell you why,
Its because of their silhouettes ofcourse!
Their hazy yet distinguished outlines, they mark my stand. they define my posture, my stance. and yes, they are the reason i sing.
A blog without readers is not a blog at all, or so i thought.
Back in the days, when i was dedicated to my blog on msn, i felt that my stuff wasnt "out there". i felt frsutrated, yes i will say it as shamelessly, and as pompously as possible. I have a darn good thing to offer, and i can translate it to mortal linguistics and yet, the silhouettes that are present in my theatre is not enough for me to truly sing.
ofcourse, in a much poetic sense, i am just plain-dead wrong.
and yet its a pity of an excuse, but it is a reality.
We dont sing unless there is an audiance.
and im not talking about those who KNOW they cant sing, but those who KNOW that their voice can get them a standing ovation easily.
it is because of their silhouttes, i refuse to sing.
and i should have known.. not every soul is outlined in a silhouette, that even in my not-very-full theatre, i should sing. for those i dont know of, who are watching.. for those who happen to stand in the shadows, and my lime light cannot outline their silhouttes.. i should sing for them.
and more importantly,
i should sing for me.
I should go back to blogging. i missed it.

Sing for me baby :P God knows I sing all my songs for u...love u sweet heart
Dude. You ARE my voice! How could you POSSIBLY expect me to dance without a song playing (ofcourse, I can... but-) not after I found my beat. You should never stop "singing". See, I never stopped "dancing".
You never shut up, you hear me Big Mama.
