Blogs or self-publishing

The same applies to all publishing in general, in fact I might go so far, as does Lacan, as to say all speaking, all expression. When we are children we "act out" (of place), we act up, misbehave, so as to attain the attention we strive for: we have yet to realize that not all attention is love, the love we demand to affirm ourselves, for we need an other's approval to give ourselves approval as we are incapable of seeing ourselves through our own eyes. In needing to see ourselves through another's eyes we would think that acting up would only harm our views of ourself, but we have yet to see that not all attention is love, albeit perhaps concern or interest (although sometimes people can be less ethical). To publish is to demand love, but all you'll probably get is indifferent attention, so it is a failed attempt from the start. A failed attempt that can only end in wasted hours without approval. You must learn to give yourself approval, instead of needing others to help you do so. Ooh so Tragic...
