the most ingeniuos idea for a blog post ever written

Today I settled myself down before the keyboard, with the intention of typing up an exquisitely frank, honest and open post, full of heart felt words and phrases which would tell, with all the utmost truth, the hardships and endeavours that I, J, go through on a regular basis.

But today, I stumbled upon the most catastrophic and sly of The Writers most mortal enemies.

finding the right words

Sometimes I wonder about myself. Sometimes I think that age-old virtue of Common Sense has been omitted from my being since birth- maybe a cause for wonder and speculation at how abysmally this new life form will cope without the one mental presence the entire human race claims to be universal.

My cause for concern is backed up with evidence of the blondest kind. For example:

storytime

Today I was told a story.

A story I can’t seem to get out of my head for various reasons. A simple story, but effective nonetheless. It goes like this:

too old too young?

I dont really know what to say.

Well, actually, Dee Bennett from London wrote about the above article, and her comments what got me thinking this time:

"The saddest thing is the lack of expression in the child's eyes and face, as though she has cut off all emotion. Her childhood seems to be destroyed."

Have we really got to this? My father, in moments

the formality of the english language

Im one of those peopple who often discovers something theyre not necessarily looking for, and this post was no exception. The grand idea for this came from a simple stumbled upon book review, soo I'm starting this with a quote from said review. It's from an American about a British book:

"There is something about the way the British write that I find fascinating. Maybe it’s the "formality" of their language? I don’t exactly know." *

 

I'm not sure I know either.
 
I don’t know about you, but, being English, I don’t really think about English customs, the way of life, and the way we speak or write. And probably it’s the same for others; people maybe don’t look deeply at their own culture because they’re surrounded by it. So to hear a view of British language from a non- Brit interested me. Thinking and actually dissecting my own culture was something I'd never done before I read the review. Until now.
