a little sudden
2002-07-09
I'm rethinking my Diaryland membership. When I first got involved, it was because I had been reading some diaries, and I had a lot of things in my life, good and bad, that I needed to express to somebody, but didn't want to express them out in the open. I wanted to have a place to be me without worrying about who might be watching, and I was also curious to see that if I was me instead of a sort of put-on-a-happy-face whitewashed me, whether I was still likable. Turns out I am. Thanks for letting me know that. But Diaryland has been an escape from reality and I'm not sure that's healthy. Not that what I've said is untrue -- it's more true than my expressions IRL -- nor do I believe that any of the friendships I've made are unreal or are with people who are unreal. It's just that being involved here has been an alternative to being involved in my here and now. Yep, I gotta go. I'll miss you.
