Please keep in mind that this is MY journal...
I have the right to be direct about what I'm thinking or feeling.
I don't expect people to like what I have to say, or even agree with it at all. I do expect you to keep an open mind, since this is in fact a JOURNAL with my private thoughts.
I speak directly and to the point about anything I want to say. If this is something you can't handle, or take offense to, then please, don't read it. I will not apologize for my feelings and thoughts, because they are just that. My feelings and thoughts.
As long as I say what I mean without being mean (sometimes it comes out mean, but I promise that is never my intention), I always have the right to express my opinions, likes and dislikes, needs, and feelings. How the other person receives this information is up to him or her.
I can not be responsible for how others feel about what I say, I can only do my best to express myself in the best way I can.
Also, please keep in mind that I do make friends only, filtered, and private entries for my journal entries. So what you are able to read may only be a very small part of my life, thoughts, and feelings. Do not judge me on the pieces of myself that I allow you to see. After all, this is a journal. It's not a three dimensional view of me or my life and unless you are someone who has met me in person and spent a large amount of time with me, you'll never really know me and can't claim to really know me based on what you may have read here or heard from others.
I am me. And no matter what, I remain true to myself. And I won't apologize or answer to anyone for it.
