Sometimes I feel that I need to say something but I can’t quite find a way to say it… and even though I do say it… and post it… nobody really quite understood what I was trying to say…
Sometimes I feel that what I say here has to be said in a “perfect” way and if I can’t say it in that “perfect” way I shouldn’t say it at all…
(I think I should let it be clear that I don’t quite know what this “perfect way” is)
Sometimes I feel that who ever reads this journal expects me to say things in a certain kind of way… maybe that same “perfect” way I spoke of above…
Sometimes I feel that when I post I’m just wasting some poor persons time by making my thoughts available for them to read…
…and sometimes (especially the next post after something like this) I feel that I am only letting people down if I write about what is really going on inside of me…
I dont think you should worry about how others interpret your words, or if you can or cant find the exact “right” way to express it. You said so yourself on one of the pages here that this journal is first and foremost for YOUR benefit.
screw the masses. As long as you know what you mean, thats all that matters….and never feel pressure to describe it in another way.
I normally try not to worry about this… but i do most of the time… even though i say this journal is for me first…
I guess… no… i know… i feel like that not only because I fear letting other people down i fear of letting myself down as well somehow if that makes any sense…
exactly what tango said. this journal is YOURS…write as much or as little as you want, in whatever style you choose…and screw everyone else. 🙂
hon, this place is for YOUR thoughts. No one is wasting their time by reading them, and you have a right to post exactly how you feel. That’s what this is for.
Don’t worry about us, just write what you feel in however way you feel like writing it, and all is well. take care..
