My first blog

Why did I create this blog? Well, it was a friend´s idea which seemed exciting at the moment. A chance to "publish" and have your stuff read by any and everyone; a chance to share your thoughts and ideas in an open, limitless space definitely seemed intriguing. A friend recently told me he thought it counter-productive to publish silly things like news articles etc. on your blog. When i mentioned that that was part of my intention, he cringed. Well, to each his own. I agree with him in a way, but i also see it important to highlight articles of interest and its intimate or personal relevance to you, how it affects society, its value etc. Of course, the more diverse, the better. So here´s to my attempt to share... from intimate family and friend photos to newspaper articles to my own film reviews to...hopefully my own literary production. Hence the name "Meanderings".
