are you reading me?

i was reading a blog somewhere, and in response to a comment of mine, a blogger asked: " i wonder if we ever get to know a person through his/her blog?" he went on to express his doubts about the notion.

my take on this is that from all the people i know personally whose blogs i read.. the blog is a pretty accurate and fair reflection of the person and his/her thoughts. of course, there are people who try to project on their blogs an image of themselves that they are not.. but like any false pretenses, they eventually trip and the truth comes gushing out.

this blog has been a very honest and down-to-earth portrayal of what i've been through since June 2004.. you've all floated with me in my highs, and plumbed the depths in my lows.. i've shared with you tidbits of my life over the years, and i've met so many of you and learned so much about your lives.. after all the truth shall set us free, however bitter it is at times.

what do you think, how much of a person can you understand from his/her blog?
