I am amazed by how addictive SC turned out to be.
I had no idea when i started to blog...only one week ago. It seems a year. i have read so many stories already, so many voices, so many aching heart and anger, depression, and happiness and sexy dreams.
It's really addictive. I have to have my daily dose now. But i am aware that as soon as i start to read somethign i have to write back and then answer and check if someboyd have read mine things. It would never end....
One should never leave the screen...
I feel lke one of the angels in "The sky over Berlin", a black and white (touching) movie of Wim Weners, that has been remade in America with Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan. There are these angels that can listen to all the thoughts of all the people in the world. They are full of words, whispered silently in the depth of each person's heart. But the angels can only listen, never talk back. Until one of them can take it anymore. Those words have touched him so profoundly that he decides to became human. Because he has to start a conversation. Listening is not enough anymore.
The angel has to comunicate.
Isn't it amazingly intuitive this perspective?
The fallen angel is human thanks to the words.
Writer are fallen angels, in a way. they go deep inside their thoughts and then write to communicate them.
We are Soulcast are like those angels. We could stay silent any longer.....we had to communicate.
If you could stay on Soulcast as long as you want, how long you think you could stay away from SC before starting to miss it?

It is very addictive...I myself can't stop. If being on soulcast was my actual job I'd be employee of the month.

Ardgirl, LOL...i'b be there with you. Its' so weird. Also, I am not saying to any of my friends that i am here.... it would destroy a lot of my freedom.....i have read somewhere that there are people seriously affected by online blogging... to the point of seriously damaging relationships or jobs or family time.
How do you know you will never turn out to be like them?
maybe some should approach blogging with the same precaution given to gambling or drinking....moderation could be the key?

I myself am addicted. I am a little worried, but at least when honey and the kids are here, I refrain. Has it gotten so bad if you wake up in the middle of the night you check it? I have ...It is very addictive!

LTB: my alarm goes off at 5:27 am. lately, i've been awake before it and am checking in on soulcast. i type of new installments of "on the nature of" on the train. i post and check in through the day. when i get home, we have dinner and i poke around a little bit at night.
i think that's the equivalent of mainlining heroin, isn't it?

Silver, i am afraid so...heroin sounds a pretty good comparison....
As for me..checking before getting out of the house, briefly after coming back and before walkimg the dog 10 minutes ago and now here again...hurggggg....
Don't we have real friend? And a life?
Do yo happen to talk with a real life friend and think oh, this is something i should write a blog about AND you forget to talk about it with your friend??? Or...well, LTB or silver said something about it in their blogs....
Fascinating....and scary..

blogging is addictive. there's no doubt about that.
this is the third blog i've made (xanga,lj and soulcast)
i found all of them addictive, but lj especially.
but it's different, lj to soulcast.
soulcast is much more personal.
it's not about fandom or to squee about a romantic scene.
it's quite simply, a place to talk and think about life and all that jazz.
i just joined but i am enjoying it. i like to see the diferent pov's and reading people who have similar doubts as myself.
and i have to comment, even if it's just to say hello.

and 1 hour during the night...hahaha so far, it's good.:-)
God bless you all!:-)

Bluesnake...with which rythm can we dance to your song? Yeah, yeah....:->
sigroid... congratulation for your self contained behavior...look at me, past midnights...tomorrow is a eraly rise and i am here....
Really, do you have the sensation of taking time from other activities or people?
okelay..... yes, people here writes so interesting blogs is really difficult not to answer them....what i found more fascinating is that i am starting to really feel connected to these people i never seen in my life and most likely i will never see....their fragments of life are gettign more real each day...it's like we are all sewing a virtual quilt together.......

Silver, i do keep an eye on you now....and you are amazingly prolific...popping (very positively) up in a lot of post.....
Did you morph yourself in a new kind of creature? The Blogman?
Would be interesting to create a chart and dutifully report each of our blogging periods? At the end of the month we could check the total of minutes we have been able to cumulate....
It could be a comunity projetc for the generations to come.....
We could put the results online for public use.
i don'tt know for some student earning his/her way to a final?
High school project? You name it....

silverwhisper said on Sep 06, 2006....
o god...i wouldn't wanna see those results!

i think they'd recoil in horror at the prospect, just as we might recoil in horror at the idea of whole families clustering around a radio in the 1930s. :>

Gingersoul,
Sing it with the rhythm of Under The Bridge (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Under the bridge downtown,
Is where I drew my blood,....
Under the bridge downtown

Remember that song?
