Blogging (and emailing for that matter) is a way of releasing one's ideas and feelings about the world, about life. No one should inhibit anyone from blogging. It's the best medium that has ever been discovered by humanity. It frees one from the constrictions of any political dogma; it gives life to one's connection with the world, with reality. Should anyone misuse it for negative personal ends, let the world condemn it, and history will take over. But to stop it from being written due to some rigid formal rules then that means formalism is dictating the blogging, no more the initiative and creativity of the blogger. We must develop our own style of blogging, or feel free to blog. After many years of restricting writing and thinking during martial law in our country we need to be able to free ourselves from institutional and personal restrictions that impinge on our ability to express ourselves. Let the words be free. Pasalitain, pasulatin tayo ng malaya!
