It is common for people to write down their thoughts and feelings if they are trying to work through a few problems or they just want to vent.
Before the Internet was available to pretty much anyone and everyone who wants access, people kept written journals or diaries and this is where they were most likely to write down whatever they were thinking or feeling.
Since the Internet became popular however, people have locked their diaries in a drawer and have started blogs in order to share their thoughts and feelings.
Blogs are not just used to share personal thoughts and feelings anymore, but many people still use them for that purpose.
If someone is feeling blue or having a bad day, they always have the option to blog about it.
The nice thing about blogging when feeling blue is that blog users can share their rants with everyone, just their friends or they can even keep it completely personal by password protecting the posts so that the written words are private.
  Another great thing about replacing a diary or journal with an online blog is that blogging can be free.
Yes, there are paid blogging platforms and some blog owners choose their own domain name and hosting, but for those who just want to spill their thoughts, paying for a blog is not necessary.
A journal or diary will cost a few dollars, so blogging those blue thoughts and feelings will at least save those few dollars.
Bloggers don't only have to blog when they are feeling a little blue; they can blog no matter what they are feeling.
The key is just typing out thoughts and feelings about whatever issue the writer feels like blogging about and who knows, other Internet users might start following the blog if it is set to public.
If a blog gets a decent enough following, then there is also the opportunity to set up advertisements and make a little extra money as well.
Next time you are feeling a little blue and have the need to jot down thoughts and feelings, blogging just might be the perfect way to vent without having to waste paper and ink.
