(no subject)
with the exception of a handful of people, i'm not quite sure who is out there, reading and writing. i am thinking about reducing my "friends list," mostly because i just don't feel comfortable with such a large list, so i'm thinking about doing some pruning based on the following reasons: one being that you haven't updated in a long time and i am not sure if you read livejournal these days; the second being that you rarely comment and so, again, i am not sure if you're reading any longer, and i don't want to assume that you still want to be here, and nor do i want to seem like i am demanding comments. i am not trying to be some comment freak, demanding responses to what i write, i just don't feel comfortable with having such a large "friends list" list when i am unsure who is even out there reading and, like i say, i don't want to make assumptions about anybody's wanting to be here. i feel as though i am (however slowly) approaching a time where i might begin (or try to begin) to write about some difficult things in a more open way (being as i am currently the kind-of, sort-of queen of obfuscation) and the simple truth is that i don't feel comfortable doing that in front of a large group of people. i admire people who can do that, but i cannot count myself among them, alas. if you return after a hiatus and decide to begin journalling again, then please let me know, and i will gladly add you back.
