Irony...or is it?

A friend of mine was asking 'where is the best blogging site?' And I really didn't have an answer. I kinda use this one for my own personal enjoyment, haven't really been trying to drive any traffic here or have any specific theme or message, other than the umbrella subject of communication. Which by the way is extremely broad and a perfect fit for someone like me who... I do not believe it is ADD to stop to and observe a butterfly who happens my way.
It all comes back to communication. We need to feel connected to something other than ourselves. Connecting to god or the divine we may observe nature or pray, connecting to other people we may use words in person or online. There are any number of ways to connect.
However, unless people acknowledge that this connectedness is a basic need, and proactively seek out other to connect with, individuals will sink deeper into self delusion and fester in unhealthy ideas. The extreme cases we hear about after lives have been lost.
So is my blog not doing its part to reach others? Well I still connect face to face so I am maintaining my own social health, but should I be doing more to reach others?
