Field must not be blank

Hello blog world,
First off I would just like to say that starting a blog is a lot more complicated than I thought it would be.  Originally, I thought it was just about finding the right URL and then you're set, you're off to start filling the Internet with all your thoughts and opinions.  It's so much more than that.  It's about the message you are trying to get across, the image you want to portray.  I suppose I knew all of these things before I wanted to start a blog but, when I was looking for a blog site to start on, they wanted me to choose all the important things first.  Like how I wanted to sign all my blogs, what the title of my blog should be.  But what if those things change as I'm writing, what if they aren't part of the message I'm trying to get across.  So instead of making my blogging more complicated than it needed to be, I decided to title my blog "A Blank Page."

I feel that it fits. It reminded me that a blog is empty until you put something in it.  Just like a piece of paper is blank until you put something on it. Whether it be your homework, notes, poems, a journal entry, a picture, it always starts blank and you get to decide what fills it.  I got the idea because I was so excited that I finally found the URL I wanted and then it told me I needed a blog title. Underneath the blog title it said "Field must not be blank." Which was about to be the title of my blog but I decided against it.  I almost just used my URL as my title but, I didn't want to cross any copyright lines since it is a lyric in a song. Can I even say what song it's in? Can I use the artist's name?  Hmm I guess I'll need to do some more research on that, maybe that Comm Law book that I kept from college will come in handy or maybe even that's a little outdated. 

Nevertheless, I have started on this blog journey and if you've read this far, thank you for joining me. I hope that my future blog posts keep you coming back for more. Also, please excuse the lack of info on the site, it is still under construction.
