One of The Best things I have ever watched is Anais Nin Observed (I have it if you wanna watch it). She wrote diary like blank pages were evil, and she had this vault of them and eventually she published some of it, and you know there is some strange stuff in there like probably many a life has, but specifically there was some strange stuff in there. And then she says in Anais Nin Observed ::when I published my diary I suddenly had a whole new relationship to the world, because people felt they knew me and so they shared from a much deeper level:: that is a made-up from memory paraphrase of what she said, but it's a stunning moment in the story.
But there's an assumption in quoting that quote that sharing leads to caring. What if no one cares. And what if Anais had this experience because she is a genius. And an accessible one at that. I mean, is there an audience for everyone? Is everyone going to find this confederacy of like-minded?

I think in the now-future, things like this blog will help to direct the like minded people to your circles of interest, allowing them to share your depth of emotion and experience.
But that could just be me :)
