I used to post in LJ for 2 years straight....and then stopped. Why? Because somehow, everyone I knew, literally, everyone found out about it and started reading it.
To be honest, at first, I felt like a writing exhibitionist, and did not mind people knowing about my life...but eventually, writing honestly in the journal became unreal....
Knowing that my closed ones might read an entry, I could no longer write 100% honestly. Yes, I could lock entries and make them private, but I found no point to it.
So, I exported my whole journal to my hard-drive, and simply started writing strictly for myself.....
G-d only knows how much I write....I love writing.
But, this NEW journal has been created strictly for placing comments on other people's journals. You won't read anything about my life here....because I no longer write online.....
So, welcome back LJ, feels weird to be here, but feels good that I no longer have the need to share my life with the public. In fact, these days, PRIVACY feels good.
Hugs,
Me
