I just realized that I haven't really written anything here in a long while. I don't know why, but suddenly, I feel so much more open, so much more at ease. I feel willing to open up and share my feelings with the world again. I think it's because of this post. It kind of opened my eyes a bit.

For a while, I would log into LJ and think, "Oh God.What is it that I can write that these people won't think is utterly stupid or petty or just flat out waaaay too depressing?" It became like a chore. It was...painful. Suddenly, I didn't want to share my once open life with y'all. I was missing the point of it all. I'm not doing this for y'all--I'm doing it for me. And, yeah, you guys are allowed to follow along on the ride...but, really, this is for me.

I...write for myself - selfish as ever. I...write as a catharsis, as a means of expression and to essentially explore the deeper recesses of my own mind.

BTW, sorry for the multiple posts....
