普段、技術英文しか書いていないので、ちょっと気分転換も兼ねて、漫然と気の向くまま（漫文）に、「題目」を設定し、英作文してみました(^^)
ん～英文にした際に、イメージした日本文のニュアンスと異なるなと感じた英文の箇所については、復習も兼ねて、適宜、修正していきたいと考えています( ｀ー´)ノ
The title:Writing while reflecting on one's actions and thoughts leads to self-understanding.
Reading what someone else has written, like a blog, feels like more than just sharing information.
It is also felt that it is not the information that connects us, but the people.
How did people feel when they connected to a blog that is neither famous nor has a well-known track record?
I feel that those who drift through the sea of information that is the Internet do not just want information.
They may be consciously or unconsciously seeking to connect with the person writing it.
One way of thinking about the connectivity of a blog is called Tsukkomibility.
It is an insight that the clearer the logical line of reasoning and the clearer the writer's argument, the easier it is to go into it.
I think this is a very interesting phenomenon.
In addition to this, the ease of connection depends on whether or not the writer is there.
Whether or not we can empathize with the writer's thoughts.
Whether the expression is good or not.
Whether the information provided is of high value.
Not only that, but also whether or not the writer's feelings make you want to say, "Yes, that's right" to the writer.
Whether or not you want to talk to them.
To put it more bluntly, whether or not you would want to be friends with that person and connect with them.
Whether or not you can overcome this barrier in people's minds.
I feel that those are very important factors.
To move people's hearts, it is not enough to convince them logically.
In other words, in addition to understanding, empathy is what connects people.
The reason I started blogging is that I had been writing what I felt at any given time in my notebook or text editor, and I thought it would be a good idea to write it down again as a reminder.
I thought it would be good if I could also write down the process of searching for my own kind of questions and answers in the process.
Perhaps the reason I went to the trouble of making it public was because I was in a position where no one would ask for my opinion unless I raised my voice.
Even if I had something to say, if I couldn't express it well, I would feel lonely and unfulfilled.
I often wondered if my opinion was worth anything.
I sometimes felt frazzled and frustrated with myself like that.
That is why I thought that I might gain something by writing various things to clarify this.
Perhaps I was overreacting and wanted to think that it was okay, that as long as I was alive, my existence surely had significance.
Nothing can be changed after death.
Only you can change yourself from now on.
I think it is stimulating and interesting to enjoy writing a blog as a spell to remind myself of this.
In a sense, this blog could be rephrased as a record of my battle to become myself.
Or it could be said to be a small rebellion against myself.
This is a blog that I am doing for extremely personal motives.
