i think i need to share this with you guys

now, i don't like to to do the soapbox thing very often, or if at all. i have enough drama at work and at home and with close friends to not have to deal with drama amongst my online friends, or my online play areas like livejournal ( Read more... )

Yeah, you're right, I do want to be an antisocial hermit on my own terms. Go fuck yourself.

that was not aimed at you no matter how you feel. i've had similar discussions with a lot of people over the last few years and it just got to a point where i needed to say it out loud.

you're entitled to do whatever you feel is necessary. i want you to know that.

but i want you to do what makes you happy.

You said a whole lot there that I agree with. Pretty much all of it, frankly ( ... )

*snuggles*

i look at my lj as my interactive digital scrapbook of my life where interactions with friends and loved ones are gathered and documented all in one place.

for people who don't blog, they don't realize how awesome it is. i mean, in twenty years we can look back and read all the ups and downs and accomplishments in our lives with the random sassy comments from our bestest friends, that just blows my mind!

so why tarnish such a fantastic gift by falling into high school-esque drama and politics? i mean, keep it real, keep it you. that's what's most important.

fandom. friends. trends. they all come and go, the only constant is what you put out there. so it should be genuine, and be you. unaltered and honest, confident and precious!

i'm glad we got to know each other too. we come from totally different corners of hockey fandom, barely meeting in the middle here and there and yet, we get along better than most. that is a precious gift indeed. :D

Huzzahs and kudos to you.

brodeurbunny30 March 5 2008, 05:11:35 UTC

You are so wise, Ash, and I want you to know that I really respect and look up to you for what you've written in this post.

Hope you don't mind me adding this entry to my memories :) ♥

*blushes* it took a lot to write it. but it's been my thoughts and feelings for ages now, and instead of reiterating till i go blue i felt i should put it down in my lj.

i hope it can help and inspire you when you need it :)

i'm honored that you want to add it to your memories. that's a special thing coming from a friend :D
