Bloggers Suffer Burnout!
I bet you've read this article already..
I remember how burned out I was last year after blogging through the war, back when this blog was called "Live from Kuwait". When it was all over I kept on blogging for a bit, then threw in the towel because I couldn't take the pressure anymore. It got to the point where people from all over the workd were hanging on my every word as if I were the ultimate authority on Kuwait and/or Iraq. You can take a stroll through the archives to read my output from that turbulent period. Sadly, through some technical screw-up I accidentally deleted all the comments that I received for my various postings. Some were priceless!
After a year off from blogging, I decided to revive it again with a different look, title and objective. Also, Blogger is so much more user friendly now whereas before it was a huge pain in the ass!
But rest assured, I haven't yet reached burnout stage since I'm not too busy at work these days (bored in fact) and therefore have lots of time on my hands to keep on bloggin'. And your comments aren't yet keeping me up at night, so keep 'em coming!
By the way, I really appreciate all the comments I've been getting; they keep my motivation running so I can continue to write, so spread the word among your friends! I'd also like some comments on the weekly music playlists, though. Do you like my choices and recommendations? Do you have suggestions of your own? TELL ME!!
One more thing, I do NOT censor any of the comments on my blog but you are all free to delete your own comments if you've posted something you wish you hadn't!

I personally enjoy reading your posts or "blogs" (?). I'm new on this blog scene so i am an amatuer, but learning! So your blogspot and another one is the only ones i read. Is that motivation enuff ? ;) If you stop writing them i'll only have one left to read, so in short.. don't stop. Haven't seen your weekly playlists but will keep a look out.

It is addictive. I don't know if that's good or bad. The one thing I like though is that it is a meeting of minds. People of similar mind-sets and people with not very similar mind-sets brought together with different opinions, and I know I like that! It certainly proves for very interesting discussion. And yes, I also like your posts(otherwise I wouldn't be writing this). I do NOT read any newspapers, be they kuwaiti or not, I hate them, I hate news in general, it's so depressing. I always need a chocolate to cheer me up after I read the news. My point is that you keep me informed, yet you make me smile, and Hey, I love Smiling! :D
