The purpose of a private note-book left openly on a table

Book
I think that one of the main reasons for which I write here, every now and then, some of my irrelevant thoughts is really due to the limited visibility on this virtual note book.

I have a sincere and warm disliking for all the most popular social networks and for their fundamental mechanism. I’m aware that it’s a kind of snobbish trend to criticize sarcastically Twitter, Facebook and the others, the name of which I sincerely ignore. I feel uncomfortable in the wave of snobbish trends, because I feel uncomfortable in all trends. But it remains a matter of fact that, besides all that, I don’t like social networks.

This half-hidden journal is a more suitable environment for me. It’s like writing something on a sheet of paper, which I leave on the kitchen table at my home, without locking the door: if someone passes-by and feels like giving a look, well, it’s there on the table. I know it might sound  absurd in this social context where so many people consider  absolutely important to attract attention, to be visible and so on, but I write here  mainly for myself, it’s a way to put order in my untidy ideas, to  record some impressions.  Often it’s complicated to sum up a thought in meaningful words. We think to have all clear in our mind, but then, when we try to express the concept, we realize by ourselves that the words we choose are not the most suitable and the concept cannot go through.

Words are important.

Dear Journal, Today I read of the importance of recording my thoughts in writing. I was aware of this self-reflective concept having kept a daily journal when I was learning to become a teacher. It worked then really well. Reflection via the written word is so very useful as we continue to grow and develop new ideas and our mindset. I must start a journal again. It would be a good thing.

    I'm the author of all the soap bubbles of thoughts, which are floating in this nearly private space.
    My name is
    Marisa Livet and I cannot speak of myself in third person, because it would sound definitely too ridiculous.
    I lay no claims to being an expert of anything.
    I write what I think, at random, without expecting any particular reader.
    This probably useless,
    ephemeral personal journal started on the 20th of December 2012,on purpose, as a kind of ironical wink to the amusing catastrophic theories which would make of the day after the last day of this world.
    In the worst case, my journal would have only one post....
