Why don't I blog more?

I don't do much here these days and I'm trying to think why that is. Perhaps compared to FaceBook updates, blogging seems longwinded and time consuming. But there is something about the blog that is lost in facebook. The opportunity to explore a subject and present several ideas. Facebook is a great instant update but it lacks depth. And I miss that. But like going back to making real coffee after the convenience if instant, it seems to tale up a lot of time.

In reality it doesn't of course. I can just spend a few moments waiting for a bath to run or a train to come and blog - and it's therapeutic for me and if anyone enjoys Reading it all the better.

I suppose I was struck by this again this morning as I was listening to the radio. Someone said something I wanted to share and Facebook didn't offer me the right way of sharing it. It was this:

Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.

I wish you all happiness. And if you're successful too - all the better.

I listened to that man too and the same things struck me. It was nice to see a new Jason blog. Thank you.

It's definitely true, I am mostly happy but not sure how much my level of success or otherwise has to do with it. You should blog more - get your finger out!

Don't see why you couldn't have put that on your status on Facebook? But I do see your point :-)
