Introduction to my blog.
I started my blog with some sad thoughts. But I wanted to tell them as I really felt sad yesterday. But of course I should write some introducing words about the purpose of this blog. Well, it purely serves one simple purpose: to tell someone about my feelings, my
thoughts and my desires.
Wait a minute, I hear you saying, aren't you in a relationship? Well, yeah, sort of. Jelle and I live together since about ten years now. But we are in a crisis at the moment. Of course we need to talk about us, but I also feel I have to out my feelings to someone "neutral",
someone outside of our relationship. That's you, exactly. Oh well, and my hair dresser of course (to use a bad old german joke)...
So if you are interested in what I have to say about me or the things that bother me, read on. If you are more of a visual type, why not try and have a look at my flickr photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/? If that doesn't help, in some time I hope to have built up some movie suggestions and maybe you can find some distraction there. Of course there's also the music I listen too that you might be interested. Still not satisfied? Now it's getting difficult... well, have a look around yourself to find something of interest and else, check out my blog mates ;-)
That said, I feel i also need to mention that I won't be able to post something every day. I could try but I know in advance I won't manage to do that. I am working irregular shifts and it's impossible for me to have a decent regular private schedule. So I do thing more spontaneously, less planning unfortunately. So I suggest to add this blog to your feed reader so in case of any updates you will be noticed immediately. Very handy, I daily use google reader for the pages I am most interested in. I can only highly recommend to use it, too.
Oh, you wonder, what will I talk about here? Different things. As you can read above, my interests are diverse. I love bear men so I might bother you with some comments on recent sightings of a beautiful bear man or events or whatever has to do with the bear men's world. ;-) I also like going to the cinema. I haven't done that too much in recent years but hope to resume it more often and hopefully I can tell about the movie I've seen. I work in the airline industry and I am also interested in civil aviation. And I love to travel, with planes or cruise ships for example. So you might find posts here about my travels or airline or cruise related items. For some reason I have a general interest in public transport, so I also like trains, trams and
metros and to a lesser extent also buses. Technical gadgets, Apple computers, internet and stuff do get my attention too. Finally, I love design and architecture. So you might see posts about this topic as well.
Reading about my interests you might have realized that there is a lot of dead, technical stuff surrounding me. I realize that. I am in a process of trying to change it. I need to. As I do not feel happy about it. I miss something, I miss live, I miss love. You receive love by people, by friends, not by trains, planes or ipods... So this blog is most probably not only about trivia but things that really move me.
Please do leave a comment. I am most happy to get in contact with people. I want to meet new people, make friends. I know it's possible, even on internet. Friendships grow when you get to know someone, meet someone in person. Let's start out here. I look forward to meet you.
For now, I thank you for your interest. Please come back soon or even better add me to your feed reader like google reader.
Take care and let me give you a hug.
P.S.: Please bear with me while this blog develops. In the beginning you might see some changes, some things not working or not looking good. I am sure I will develop my own style, in the beginning I might look at other blogs to get some inspirations. But I am new to this stuff and have to figure things out. With the time comes experience on what and how I want to publish here and how I deal with comments and other for me yet unknown things. Thank you.

This is fantastic Guido, to read your thoughts here. I know you always have plenty to say and writing seems to come easily to you, something I envy, as I find it time consuming and difficult. (Your English is better than mine too + I was born in England!)
I hope you enjoy blogging, I know I'll enjoy reading about your escapades.
Good Luck mate....Love Keith x
Dear Guido,
once I have discovered your blog I promise I will read it regularly. Good for you that you started blogging.
Hugs,
Jörg
Thanks so much Keith for your lovely and kind, thoughtful words! I really appreciate you took the time to have a look.
It may come as a surprise to you but writing does not come easily to me. It is indeed time consuming and I spent way too much time at the moment in front of the computer. But at the same time it's something that works for me right now to deal with my feelings.So I'll continue doing it for the time being.
Hey Jörg, thanks so much for your visit! I am surprised and happy you found your way here. I am even more thankful for your "readership". ;-)
I also think it's good for me to write "off" my feelings. It's been in my head for quite a while but I never really started it. It looked so complicated and actually in the beginning when I first started to think about it a year ago or so I kept myself too much busy with the look of it all instead of the content. I am still not happy with the limited blogger templates, but that's the desing loving person in me... haha, once I am familiar with all this here and feel more comfortable with the technical blogging part I will look into a more pleasing design. For the time being I can live with this compromise ;-) Besides, it's all about the content and not the looks. :-)
