What's all this talk about going private?

So lately a lot of my friends have been going private. This made me investigate into why? and should i do it? So finally after many discussions with people i have come to this conclusion:
I am not going private! These are the reasons why:

1- I love finding people i went to High School with and seeing how their lives are. (It is so much fun, really i get sucked in and can do it all day) I would like old friends to be able to read about my family.
2- I don't put anything on my blog that people couldn't find out anyways.
3- If people really wanted to know everything about me. They could. Trust me! My brother has a shirt that says "i read your email" really going private does not keep you safe.
4- I would love for strangers to read my blog. I think my family is great. For the most part they probably get bored and go to the next one. But maybe they would learn something positive and uplifting.
5- I'm not going to let the sickos of the world keep me from living my life. There are always going to be horrible people out there but i'm not going to live in fear.

So the great thing is that we all have the freedom to choose. I'm not saying going private is dumb. I just don't want to do it. I welcome everyone to read my blog. As for the sickos out there. Get a life and instead of wasting your time, do something good for the world.

I'm glad you stayed public so I might not make the private invite list! It's happened before. It's fun to see what you and your family are up to!
