Yes, everyone. I know it's time. It's The Time. The time to finally step back and think.Why did I start blogging about Club Penguin? There are many reasons, but the biggest truth is that I wanted fame. I wanted to be noticed around the island, and not blend into the sea of colors like an ordinary penguin. I wanted to be crowded, I wanted penguins to scream my name, and most of all, I wanted to be popular.
My idol back then was Fever (or as be used to be known, Watex.) I was heartbroken when his site was mysteriously shut down. I later found out that he had been posting about a way to get free membership- and break Club Penguin terms and conditions by doing so. I was astounded. How could a blogger do something so awful?
I soon learned that there is no end to the terrible things bloggers can do. They can terrorize others, hack into their blogs, spam and hate, steal identities, steal pictures, and countless other things. I felt very scared and alone. Some of these things even happened to me, and I had to go through it by myself, for the most part.
Suddenly, during a random Google search, I came across one of my current friends' sites. This introduced me to the gigantic community of Club Penguin bloggers. In a heartbeat, I knew that I wasn't alone. I had others- people who shared my dreams. People who shared my feelings. I quickly became friends with a great number of amazing bloggers.
Through this, I grew.
You see- and here's the secret.
There are ALWAYS going to be bad things happening. There are ALWAYS going to be bad people. You may feel like you're all alone, or you're helpless. But remember this- there are ALWAYS going to be good things happening. There are ALWAYS going to be good people. Your job in life is to find the good in the bad, the one-in-a-million lucky shine. This is what makes life worth living.
I discovered this through blogging about a virtual life site online. It sounds preposterous, I know, but it's true. This is what kept me blogging when I doubted. The good people- the lovely comments supporting us. The people who added us to our blogrolls and gave us advice. These were like a life raft in the midst of a roaring ocean, and I clung to these.
But here we are, at the end. This was like a blogging roller coaster ride. There were ups and downs, and uncomfortable twists, and dazzling swoops. Now we are at the end. I am at the end of my ride, and I am boarding off. Others, at this very second, are boarding on. I have to make room for them, don't I?
I am leaving now. I am not going to blog about Club Penguin anymore. I will STILL PLAY CLUB PENGUIN! But I am not going to blog about it anymore, because I have too much going on in my life to have reason to get up early and stress over posts. There is a whole world out there! Get up from this computer for a second and look around you. Look out the window. See the beauty in the life all around you!
