I hear ya-- I used to be really nervous and apprehensive about anyone else reading anything I wrote, and I think it's one of those things you can only get over once you've learned to like your work and stop being afraid of criticism. Now, yeah - I get a kick out of sharing it too, whether they give me feedback or not. I think being an avid reader helps as well, because it reminds you what it's like to read something you love/can relate to/think is awesome, and it's nice to think there's someone out there who might have those feelings about something you wrote. Does that make sense? Sorry, I'm burbling on! :P
Ugh, animal abuse is one of the few things that really gets to me. Like, it can really mess me up, in a very short amount of time. I get so fucking angry - I actually think it should be a law that whatever horrible thing you do to an animal gets done right back to you. Idgaf if someone has issues or whatever - there's NO excuse, and I definitely feel like the punishments aren't harsh enough. In a way though, I'm kind of glad I feel so passionately about it, because since I've chosen working with animals as a career path, I know I'm never going to lose that motivation because I'm never going to not think it's fucking evil, you know?
I feel like I haven't talked to you in so long because it's been so long since I last talked to you
LOL I love your logic! ;D Yeah, I'm really good atm. I've actually been doing quite an array of things, but to save this comment becoming obscenely long and boring, here's my latest journal entry where I over-indulge in ramblings of recent goings on x
Dude, that makes total sense and I feel exactly the same way.
I... don't think I even know what career you're in, unless I've just forgotten D: I've always had this idea that I'd like to be a vet or to work at the RSPCA but I think that I'm too sensitive to do either of those jobs. Unfortunately that kind of work involves actually having to confront animal abuse or just animals in pain generally and yeah, while I feel really strongly about animal cruelty, I like to be able to push it to the back of my mind and lie to myself that it doesn't really happen in the real world. Doing one of those jobs would require me to confront it on a daily basis and I doubt I'd be able to handle that side of it.
I saw your post the other day but was just heading out so I didn't have time to comment and then being the failboat that I am, I forgot to come back to it later lol. I will go look right now :D
