blog therapy

i've always preached about how blogging can be therapeutic. write your feelings out... let the emotions flood a piece of digital paper instead of having tears flood your heart.  just let it out and breathe.

i need to take my own advice.

i've become this private person who won't open up to anyone about anything. burden you with my issues? make you aware that i've got problems? show you my sensitive side? no way! i'll deal with it myself behind this hardshell exterior i've built so well... i'll sleep it off... go for a run... but i'll deal with it... alone.

alas, everyone needs a shoulder to lean on... whether you need advice, need another perspective, or just need someone to listen to you vent and rant and let you do so without judgement... we all need to let go of that weight on our shoulders one way or another.

so here i am... about to take my own advice. let's write about it... find closure and release the pain that weighs me down....

 

2011 is the new me

happy new year! happy new blog!

making the move to wordpress cost me 7 years of blogging.  i fail at backing up data.  however, i figured i'd look on the brighter side and accept this as a sign that i need to let go of the past and move forward.  you can't live in the past, right?  so, i'm starting fresh with a new perspective on life and what lies ahead for me. cheers!
