The Kind Of Mood I'm In

One of the main passions I enjoy is music and what it says about how one feels emotionally. When words fail I resort to music to express the kind of mood I'm in. What follows are videos expressing the kind of mood I'm in this weekend.The first video speaks to me of homeless situation in Allentown (which was a big issue this week).

The 2nd video expresses my continuing frustration with the lack of interest via comments left on this blog.

The 3rd music video is a continuation along this same line. Numerous people comment on only 3 other blogs in the Lehigh Valley. They have totally abandoned all the other bloggers as well as myself. What makes one or two bloggers ("just another brick in the wall") more special then the dozen or so of others here in the Lehigh Valley who get no comments either? (Check it out for yourself-- Click on the other blogs on the right hand of this screen)

Finally the 4th video reminds me as to why I am I frittering away my time blogging? It's because I've got too much time on my hands.



(1) The Williams Brothers- "I'm Just A Nobody"



(2) Roger Waters - "Is There Anybody Out There?"



(3) Pink Floyd- "Another Brick In The Wall"



(4) Styx - "Too Much Time On My Hands" (1981)


There's a couple of other thoughts I'd like to express...
I follow the dozen or so of other bloggers here in the Lehigh Valley. It disappoints me when readers don't appreciate their hard work (other then on only 3 other blogs). People should leave comments of encouragement to them.

I did continuously for the first 2 years or so when I first started blogging. The links, comments and respect I gave them weren't returned in-kind (except for 2 or 3 of them who supported me). Maybe some deserve no more attention then they themselves are willing to give to others or myself. Hence why I've gotten away from supporting them via links and words of encouragement.

That doesn't mean readers shouldn't if they enjoy their writings. Even if people think little of this blog, I strongly encourage people to support the local bloggers. That in of itself would be encouragement enough for me.

Thanks,
