self editing

Does anyone else who blogs self-edit? (as i was re-reading this i added the hyphen between self and edit) Maybe it's because of my job, where I am constantly editing myself and others, but when I start to type in this empty white box, there are times when I can't make my fingers communicate with the keys for fear of what they will say. I know that contradicts the point of having a blog. This is supposed to be a place for me to share with family and friends and just put things out there for someone to read, but there is an insecurity of what people will think that I struggle to overcome. This worrying about what other people think has plagued for a long time. Maybe it's part of being a perfectionist. Or maybe I'm more of a private person than I realized. I love to read other people's blogs, and get a peek into their lives, but I haven't seemed to want to reveal much about my own. Part of it is that I need to get over myself and open up to people. I'm always asking other people questions, focusing attention on them rather than myself, but how often to I let them get to know me?
