One of the reasons I created this journal, perhaps the most important reason, was to give myself a space to sort out how I feel about the relationships I develop. I want to be honest about my concerns, fears, and worries as well as my excitement, joy, and desire. I'm afraid of that honesty - perhaps most so because being honest with myself is accepting that these desires I feel are real, and a vital part of me.
So far, I've spent most of my time on this journal sorting through my feelings about a relationship ending. I want, now, to turn toward the relationships I have and what I feel about them. It may take me a while; this kind of sorting often does not translate easily into words. Still, I want to try; capturing my fears may help be avoid falling prey to them in the future.
I'm not going to try to be eloquent; instead, I'll shoot for being as forthright as I can be.
