Some people like tattoos and some don’t. Reactions vary from love or hate. Some love tattooing themselves as a form of self-expression while some others may hate tattooing for religious or other reasons. One thing is clear to me though, tattooing — or tattoo art — has always been part of man’s civilization and people can argue for or against it. As for me, I love photography as an art expression and the opportunity to photoshoot a tattoed girl has presented itself and so what do I do? Of course, photoshoot haha!

From Diaries to Blogs



Before there was internet and before there was such a thing called blog or blog sites, some people used to have diaries. It’s a notebook or a log book where people write their personal experiences for the day. This is where they write their inner thoughts and feelings. Maybe some could not express their feelings openly so they write it in a log book and keep it a secret. It’s a private matter usually. And somehow, this exercise does have a healing and therapeutic effect on the person doing the writing. A person writes in his diary because it makes him feel good after he has poured out his heart in his diary.

Me and my eldest daughter back in 1986 in Bukidnon.

Some others don’t mind if their diaries are read by everyone. It really depends on the person. And of course, not all love to keep a diary, especially on a daily basis haha! During my younger days, I thought it was a “girly” thing to do. I never had any use for a diary at all.

The Advent of the Internet and Blog Sites

With the coming of the internet, some folks have begun to keep their diaries online. It was their “log book” or “web log” on the internet. This is where we got the term “blog.” It’s the short form of “web log” — a diary on the internet. But a blog is still essentially the same thing as the diary of old. Some prefer their blogs private and for their eyes only while some others don’t mind to show their blogs publicly. My blog site here is for everyone to see. Everyone can read and can comment on my blogs. But of course, I reserve the right to delete all offensive comments if I don’t like it haha! Just be nice to me okay?

Blog Sites that Generate Income

Nowadays blogging and creating blog sites have become big business for some. It’s no longer just a personal diary. It is now used for advertising and for generating income. I hope my blogs add value to one’s life and love in Jesus Christ. I hope that what I write may be of some use or food for thought for those who may happen to read it. And of course, I write for myself too. This is after all, my diary on the internet.
