This is my first entry on here, but I have written in journals for many years. When people die, others always read their journals. So everything the dead person had written in a private journal so no one else would read it gets exposed to the world anyway. And its supposed to be ok because they are dead. Which doesn't make sense. The only time it would be ok to share someones private journal with the world is if everyone else was dead except the person who was writing in the journal, then it would be cool to read it to the world, because it would still be private. You with me? As it goes, I'm gonna die one day too and someone is gonna read through all my journals. And if I'm famous, lots of people may read them, they may even publish them in a book or make a movie out of them...Pretty messed up huh? All this being true, I figure I might as well start sharing my journals with the world now because this eliminates the chance of some disrespectful, dollar sign-eyed hollywood bastard the chance to make money off of my thoughts and feelings, two things which, can never be valued in terms of money. And who knows maybe it will reach out to someone and help them, or maybe it will help me...who knows? One thing I do hope to accomplish through this journal though, is to allow myself to be more open with people. I tend to be very closed and secretive with people, only letting them into me in very small doses and I want to change that. So, here I am, more or less as Tupac Shakur said it, A rose trying to grow from a crack in the concrete...
P.S. This format is really boring and unoriginal, if anyone can help me fimake it more me, please help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
