Interpretation

I created this blog at 2:30 a.m. Tehran time on May 5th, 2007. I am not sure I want a blog, but here it is! Throughout most of my life I have wanted to express myself, but now that blogs have been created I am not sure that I want anyone to read what I write and have to deal with their reactions. I am usually surprised by people's reactions to what I write. There are as many interpretations as there are readers.

Sometimes the writer has no intention of saying something, but the reader reads it into the writing. And sometimes the writer reads or hears a reader's interpretation and says, "Cool! I didn't say that, but that's an interesting interpretation of what I wrote."

What is the relationship between writer and reader?
