"A Means to An End"
Really who could have believed that twenty five journal entries later I would end up here. When I started this tentative journal I was scared and I regretted every single word I wrote in the heat of the moment. Though now that they are on there black on white I can't help but read them over, remember and appreciate what it has done for me and my life. I've hurt people along the way, I've praised people along the way, I even had people enjoy my stuff along the way. Truly it was worth the journal though now the question is answered. I used this journal as a project to myself to see how long it would take me to break down these glass walls and try to bring myself closer to the world. Twenty five entries and two months later I think I have accomplished what I set out to do.
I thanked those who I love and are still very much a big part of my life. I apologized to those who used to be a big part of my life. I slowly altered and changed through the saga of words and catch phrases. It seems I only outlasted Wallace because he moved his journal from livejournal to diaryland. So I can take pride that I can outlast the chosen few and not totally devoid of sentiment and devotion. Though everything must come to an end and this is it for me.
I've ran the gambit of online journals and I've made a few...and abruptly stopped a few. True I didn't really keep this for a long time, nothing that can be measured in years and hundreds of entries but it feels like its the only one I remained faithful to from start to finish. The mark of a good writer is his ability to stop writing before it becomes stale and tasteless to him.
I feel like I should say something inspiring right here. Something that people can take away with them and lock in a padlocked box beside their bed, but I don't think I can offer anything that you all don't already know. Well let's give it a whirl anyways.
Be true to yourself, honesty with who you are will always carry your wings beyond the reaches of the sky. If we are meant to suffer on this world and carry burdens strapped to our backs, than lets at least make sure we are suffering for something that we would gladly die for.
If you actually follow these streams of conciousness and I don't know you, leave me a comment and I'll come back just one more time and let those "followers" about the location of a website I am trying to put up and my game review if they ever actually get that damn website up.
As for the rest who may stumble upon this. Well take what you can away and the rest just leave on the page as "collateral damage". There are a few moments that are supposed to be serious view on life, the rest is just thoughts from one man to another.
Well that's it kids. Be true to yourselves and be good to each other, after all we are all still human deep down inside.
