Interesting.
I miss this community. I think it's time again to use this for what it is, a journal. Anyways, I need to start flexing my creative/reflective writing muscles and get back in shape! It was unfair of me (and the millions of others) to abandon this wonderful forum for deep personal thought because Myspace, Friendster, and finally the juggernaut--Facebook deluded my precious imagination by turning on the virtual reality TV (the social network obsession). I, for one, am ready to start fleshing things out instead of just updating and commenting. Those are great tools for quick and fun, and simultaneously direct and broad, communication but what about the real thoughts? The fact that no one will probably be seeing this doesn't bother me either. Not that the thought of someone seeing it will. I just think this is the kind of place where we all join up and post whatever thoughts we deem thinkable and readable for ourselves and our cohorts with the same understanding that this is what LJ was designed for. So I am back... If I can remember to use this thing again...
Maybe tonight I'll get high and write to get the creative juices flowing... though I'm beginning to fear that that only hastens the loss of creativity which naturally occurs in the brain (maybe just mine?).
