THE PAIN OF TOLERANCE

2016 has come to an end and we all survived the challenges of life, the pain of tolerance of difficult people, and the wrath of nature. Many have survived too the punishments reserved for corruption, indifference, bearing false witnesses, and all forms of excesses. But as a song goes, "well, maybe this year (Send In The Clowns)". When karma comes, which definitely will come, it will be like the clowns coming in for the righteous.

 

A few days ago I read that professional journalists and writers in a forum have belittled bloggers, the latter being "untrained" unlike those who are graduates of journalism courses.

The real difference between the first kind and bloggers is that the former have merely acquired the skills and eventually write for a living, for money which makes them susceptible to succumb to "envelop-mental journalism". 

 

Bloggers on the other hand have that intrinsic talent in playing with words to create a beautiful tapestry of ideas, which no school can perhaps teach, as no institution can mold a soul nor coach a heart to express ideas in a different and even in an unorthodox way.

 

Bloggers my dear write with the language of the heart and not by the pen that is devoid of life.
