As you may know, it's been quite a while since I've written a blog. I realize that I'm failing the blog community, and that many people are likely depressed and lonely waiting for the next words of wisdom to flow from my keyboard.
Despite the cause for disappointment in my lack of posts I want all of my many readers to know that I have been struggling to make a contribution to the digital community in another form: commenting.
Every blogger knows that the key to blogging is in the comments. After all, if it weren't for the comments from our readers telling us how great and/or stupid we are, then why would we blog at all? If it weren't for the comments, why not just write our ideas in journals like our ancestors did? I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that humankind has evolved past that method of expression.
So, lest anyone think that I am no longer a contributing member of the blogciety, just remember that I'm here every second I have to waste, reading and judging your blog posts, and commenting on them. You couldn't do this without me.

your comments are what make my blog worth it.
I still think there are two kind of bloggers in the blogworld. There are those who blog for the comments (and to those people you are a godsend), and there are those who blog for themselves. The former may suffer blogging anxiety that the mission of their blog may fail (no comment), while the latter has the satisfaction of knowing that their blog has completed its mission through its mere existence in blogworld. I think I used to be the former, but then serious personal reflection allowed me to progress to the latter. And now I hardly ever blog. I guess this ended up being a sad story.
See, you became the second type of blogger and lost all purpose in your blogging life. You need to embrace the comments. Come back to the dark side.
