To Know and Be Known

All of us, I believe, have a desire to know and be known. Why else would blogs, MySpace, etc. be so popular? Why do people love to fill out questionnaires about themselves? Well, I'm no different than anyone else, so here I go dipping my toes in the murky waters of blog-dom. Do I actually think anyone cares to read what I have to say? Probably not. If anything, it'll be cathartic to put things in writing. As usual, my motives are apparently purely selfish.
