The Big 0-5

Eight days ago, there was a big milestone in my life: the 5th anniversary of my being a blogger.

It's hard to believe, even now, I can call myself a blogger (especially after taking a look back at some of my previous posts).  Nevertheless, taking a look at my very first post, it's amazing how far I've come; nowadays, I'm not worried about how to blog, just what to blog about!  Not to mention the places I've been, the events I've witnessed, the opportunity to write about all sorts of issues.  It has been a helluva journey, I will admit.

Looking back has also made me contemplate what kind of blogger I am.  Have I done a good job offering my two cents on the issues at hand?  To some extent, I believe I have, but I know I've also made mistakes in the past, I've gone one direction when I should've gone another, I didn't go as good a job in making my arguments as I thought I had, and I suspect I've also been harsh when I shouldn't have been (although I'm not sure where).  I'll have to let history judge me.

Hopefully, as I move on with the next five years, I'll do a better job blogging, a better job arguing my case, and actually blog more often!
