It's a long 'un!

Okay, I have now deleted the beginings of the original journal that I wanted to post here. Let's just say that I was upset, and that it was whiney and full of self pity. Also livid anger. But, as I usually try to do, I am making the attempt not to say things I don't mean in a non-rant post. More about my rants later

You are one of the most compassonate people I know!

First off, I just want to say that I do not believe you cannot rant and express over the top ideals and be a caring person at the same time. I have personally know Lex for years. She is a woman of strong convictions, but has never turned a person aways because they do not fit her idea of perfection. This is the same Lex that spent days among days with a CHEERLEADER, that fit all stereotypes of the word (and we all know how much she does not agree with these folk) trying to calm her, ease her pain, and make her feel important! This journal is an outlet to vent such outrageous ideas, then reflect on them and move about in your life in a healthy, constructive manner. You cannot judge a person solely on a ranting journal entry. I honestly do not think it matters how her LJ makes her appear to people. Knowing Lex as a whole is what matters. She is the kind of person who would see a drunken prep on the side of the street and ask him if he needed a ride. She may not agree with your opinions or life style, but she will respect it and respect you, and that is what matters. Her journal entries are not in any form the way she would speak to someone, or treat them. Like I said before, this is an outlet, one to be used in anyway she sees fit. She leaves it open for you to express concern so that she can explain herself where needed. This alone shows that she cares about others feelings. Otherwise she could just leave it a closed forum and tell people "too bad, this is what I think, and I don't care how you feel about it."
