I hate to go into the details, but all I can say is that no matter what life has given me, I still have faith in people.
I choose to let things go and be the bigger person.
I'm constantly growing and learning.
I'm learning that despite my faith in people, there will always be negative people and negative energy that wants so desperately to bring you down. To bring you down, is to bring them up. Simple as that.
Why...I'm not too sure. I don't think I'll never know the answer, but I know that one thing I must do is choose the people that surround me wisely.
I have had this journal for over half a decade.
When I read past entries I look at how much I've changed...how many lessons I've learned and how many lessons I haven't learned.
Sure, this journal is me. But it isn't at the same time.
If you meet any of the lj-bloggers in person, you'll realize that their lj is simply a small facet of themselves. And I feel very privelaged to be allowed to read their journals.
This is an electronic diary version of my life. A very small part of it. But it's important to me and it's become a comfort over the past years, especially during trying times.
I don't expect people to understand why people blog. Why people want their lives "publically" posted over the internet. I just hope that people understand what respect is.
I respect your privacy as you should respect mine.
Last but not least, I never regret what I write in this journal.
If anything, I write with honesty and conviction.
Even in my rants. They are my genuine rants. I feel genuinely upset.
Or my melancholy posts. That is how I feel at the moment.
I love those that I love with all my heart...and they know it.
But overall, I try to make life as happy as it can be, despite the dark times.
You only have one life. Make the most of it. =)
