Hello!
Because of a few people I'm unfortunate enough to know (who just happen to have livejournals), I've turned my journal into a Friends Only one. See, I think that as we go through life and especially through high school, we hit these phases where we're cruel, unconventional, tag-alongs, elite cliques which few really yearn to be in... among other things. Now many of us seem to grow out of these phases, costumes if you will, and go on to become our true selves embracing this instinct for human kindness and compassion that I think we all have. Yes... all of us. Some are more in touch with it than others, obviously, providing the differences between those of us who brake for animals and those of us who swirve out of our way to hit them.
The people viewing my journal today are the ones I cherish, the people who I feel have progressed in their lives to a state of being where they are able to appreciate people for who they are, they can embrace diversity, and they can have intelligent conversations and posts in their livejournals without having to sink as low as calling people rude and childish names or taking pictures of others with their overrated camera phones.
We are more than our mistakes, we are not our past, and we are happy in a peaceful environment. Believing this to be true, I have made my journal a happy environment to share with those I love.
Now, just because you are not on my friends list that doesn't mean I don't care about you. Of course I do! I care about everyone! If you feel you should be on my friends list please leave a comment with your lj username and I'll be happy to add you to my Friends List. Thank you!
