All About Me
Just to throw some preemptive gasoline on a fire...
In case you didn't realize, this is my blog. Mine. In it, I will link to things that interest me, mention my thoughts and opinions, write about how I feel and what are my feelings about things. I am not going to censor myself for anyone. If I want to say it, I will say it. If I see/experience something positive, and it affects me strongly, I will mention it. If I see/experience something that I utterly abhor, I will post about it. This is not about you, this is all about me. (snarky smirk here). I am entitled to say what I want to say on my blog. You can make your own blog (if you don't already have one) and say what you want to say there. If you can't understand why I said something, maybe you should ask me why I said it. If you think you have some authority to tell me not to post, you better give me a damn good reason. If I post about something I've experienced, I tend to leave out names. If you were involved in the incident, only you and others who where there will know it. If this was a good thing, then you should have no problem. If it was a negative thing, then perhaps you should think about your role in it. I will not put anything on this blog that I am not willing to say to your face. You don't like it, If I write about something that someone takes personally and alienates them, too fucking bad. Grow up. This blog isn't about you, it's about me. And as I said, I don't post what I wouldn't say to someone's face, given the opportunity. Sometimes, I don't have to opportunity to say things I really want to say to someone's face and this blog gives me the ability to at least vent about it. Sometimes, peer pressure forces a gag on me when I feel something should be addressed. If I am not allowed to say what I feel in real life, then I sure as hell am going to say it here. Again, if you don't like what I have to say, or you feel that what I have to say will hurt someone, maybe you should look and see where I am writing from. Maybe I am hurt and need to put down my feelings to deal with them. Or to record my experiences for someone else to read so if they find theirselves in a similar situation, it will help them either prepare for what is going to happen or take steps to stop it.
Now here is the thing. There is no magic spell cast on this page forcing you to read what I've written. You don't like it, go to the little green arrow in the upper left corner and click it. In other words, don't read what I've written and leave. You don't like what I say, politely leave a comment as to why you don't like it. If I find it relevant, I might allow it to be posted. You abuse me in a comment, meet my little friend "delete."
I'm glad we understand each other.

I've been here before. Last year I posted my feeling because I was going through a dip into major depression and I received a comment basically telling me to stop whining.
I don't think I will ever be able to open up to this friend ever again.
