missing lj friends
Posting are becoming more scant, I miss my lj friends. Thanks to Dave, Chris, Kat and Jessie & Jolene for keeping it going. :-) At least a little.
Some of my friends haven't posted in years. I guess I just used to thrive on writing and reading that of others. Sharing things I am not able to share otherwise in any other medium. Pen to paper so to speak, as to letters on a page. I miss the prolific ranting, the deep arguments. Sad to say I miss being able to be alone and yet still feel a part of something. I left for years too so I can't blame anyone, I just miss them.
Facebook is most decidedly a poor sad substitute for what blogging is meant to be. I tried to avoid it, but it got too lonely. I really am starting to consider the ramifications of online life. It becomes easy to close yourself off, and harder to relate to people in person. It is nice to be able to keep in touch with everyone at once and sometimes makes me miss them more because of it. It's possible to say I have hundreds of peole I consider friends and I would be there for any of them in a heart beat only limited by time and distance.
