Catching up.

Jul 13, 2015 15:45

I want to write, I don't really have a specific topic in mind at the moment. I just spent the better part of the last five hours catching up on months-worth of writing from a friend. Reading it just illustrated how out of the loop I'd been by not checking on their writings. It's my own doing for not checking.

I feel so detached in general though especially since I stopped working. Am I avoiding people? Am I trying to avoid the world?

I know other people have bigger problems to deal with. Mine are so minor in the grand scheme of things they aren't even worth mentioning.

The purpose of having a journal when I first started one (it was before one) was to write what I was thinking. To serve as sort of a written log of my thoughts. I didn't really have a deeper motive than that at the time. Just so that later if I wanted to I could reflect back and know what was going through my head at that particular time in my life.

I remember something a (high school) friend wrote about me ages ago, maybe I'll elaborate on that later.

I feel like all of these years of writing has impacted the way that I communicate. I feel like I have a more verbose manner (not all the time, more so in certain situations than others) compared to, say, other INTJs, who are generally typed as being more short-and-to-the-point unless maybe talking about a subject they have extensive knowledge about.

communication, detached
