Moving on...

So, I think I'm going to bid a fond adieu to Blogspot/Blogger. Though I didn't post much, I enjoyed the opportunity to put my thoughts out there. It gave me a place to vent, to release, and then a place to reflect. It was great not to keep my feelings/thoughts bottled up. I think finding a place to put your thoughts, whether in a journal, in a password protected Word document, or on the internet anonymously, helps you to wade through what's real and what's imagined. What's important and what's wasted energy. Things don't seem as big or as final when you can put it in writing then look at it again. You kind of get to remove your feelings. And in the light of reflection, you can re-affirm the truth and distance yourself from the false.

Thanks for giving me that, Blogspot! :-)

I don't know...I may continue, I may not...nothing's set in stone...and I think I like it that way. ;-)

Today

Sometimes it sucks feeling like there's nowhere to immediately vent one's frustrations. But I suppose it serves a purpose - you know, training oneself not to seek immediate gratification from flocks of people saying "what happened?" "what's going on?" "you wanna talk?" "I'm here if you need me...", etc. It also gives one the time to really reflect. Not everything is that deep or serious. Some stuff is super petty. Like arguing over whether "on" or "in" makes a vast difference in someone's interpretation of a phrase or statement. And letting that shit blow up into other, peripheral foolishness. And crying over it on the way to work. When the car decides to break down. So instead of crying in the privacy of one's vehicle, one's inane meltdown happens on the platform at the train station. A sad commentary, really.

And that's how my day started. How's your day going??
