When does it become too personal?

I have been reading a few different blogs recently, and have come to realise that mine is missing a little something. Sometimes it seems flippant and kind of shallow. That's OK, because that is sometimes how I feel, but every now and then I would like to do a post that is real.

I haven't yet figured out where the line is however. Where is the line between being 'real' and being one of those people that go off and have a deep and meaningful conversation with someone whilst the party rages around them? Where is the line between a blog and a diary? What is appropriate?

I don't know.

What I do know is that my heart is aching right now for my Dad who is very ill. I am frustrated that I can't be there to comfort him and give him a big hug. I am also frustrated that I can't write about it. It is too raw, and it's too personal.

I might write it anyway and keep it for me.

So what do you think? Where do you draw the line with what you will share? What do you consider to be too personal or 'too much information'?
