So I know that's not really something a blogger should really be looking
for is it? I mean the whole reason some of us do that is to get what
we have to say heard and out there and for people to know who it was
that said/thought/wrote it. But sometimes it'd be nice to be able to
just word vomit it all out there without having to think and re-think
how everything sounds and if it's going to hurt someone's feelings or
should even be said at all. .
There are times though... oh, but there are times... when what you have
to say isn't for the masses. For me writing is therapeutic. It's how I
process things. You would be amazed to know how much time I spend
"writing" in my head. I work out problems. I make things that I'm
struggling with in my own head by writing. This is not only my website
out to the world, it is what makes my world livable. Like everyone I
have my stuff to deal with. But unlike everyone, this
is how I deal with it. This is what puts my thoughts together. While
I'm sure there are people that read this and think there isn't a
filter. That's not true. There's actually a very heavy filter. I've
asked Doug how open he's willing to have his life, since this can affect
him, too. He says that "so far" there hasn't been too much. So far
I've kept it mild to prevent putting too much of our private life on
public display. There have been things I've wanted to write about that
I've left out because I don't want to have to have the conversation
that the post was "too much" and I have to delete it. Maybe that would
be therapeutic, too but I don't want to have to get there. Writing
seems to be so much a part of my brain that I don't know how else to
think. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings and so I am careful. But
when my frustration with someone or some situation is reaching overload
it's hard not to rant. And those are the times I wish I no one knew
about this. That I could hide behind some kind of anonymity and
word-vomit all over.
There are blogs that allow you to "take
over" and has ghost posts. Maybe I should think about doing that the
next time the urge takes me.
