Blogging

  When I first started blogging, way back when I was using aol Journals (how I laugh at my folly!) I intended to use it for writing down my thoughts, and things that happen to me during the week.  More a news item than anything else.  Now I've been doing it for a while I've found that I use it to write down anything and everything.  There's a lot of stuff on here that I don't speak to people about much.  I feel I can tell my blog anything, even though I know people will read it, it somehow doesn't feel bad to bare my soul like this, unlike trying to talk to people about stuff (which I am notoriously bad at, ask Pete about that some time!).  I find it easier to write what I'm feeling, I can take time to think about it and get it right, otherwise what I'm trying to say comes out wrong, and it either makes me sound completely crazy, or I end up hurting someone with misplaced words.  I'm glad I started blogging.  It's the best therapy anyone can have.
