just when you thought it was not safe to share yourself with the world
this is a comment to my last entry (which blew my mind) and i doubt y'all read my comments so...

Good luck sweets. I know you don't know me but I wanted to say I do know it can be a hard step.
I left home at 17 and have never been back so if you need someone to talk to...well, some stranger in Carrboro is here.

thanks that's really cool of you. it is getting increasingly harder because all my friends who i know care a whole lot are trying to get me to go home and i am still not quite ready. i think i will though. i am like seeing myself type this and thinking that it is some character flaw or something or like i want to apologize for not having a stronger will or something but i am beginning to think that my home, as imperfect as it truly is, is what i got and it is really not all that bad.
and i want to be able to do it (live) on my own and think i probably could, but i really don't want to, especially because i don't have to. thanks again.

I don't think wanting to be in your home is a character flaw. To the contrary, I think learning to embrace flaws and realizing that people cannot be perfect is a sign of strength and maturity.
