Fill Your Heart
One of my favourite Local Talents is here today in the theatre, with one of my favourite local theatre groups, FoolsFURY. I don't know where I'd be without these people in my life. I know I've written about this so many times but I am still staggered. Most anyone who happens to read this won't know what I was like when I was younger and couldn't bear to be around anyone. I was unkind to myself and everyone else was just an utter mystery. Now we've all got the Internets and people are connected to Past Mistakes and are able to stumble across the self-published thoughts of friends and co-workers and acquaintances. Keeping this journal open to the public almost cost me a friend or two, but I've maintained (if not updated) because why not soldier on? If there's one thing I've learned it's that I was being honest when I said I'd rather know. No matter how painful the truth is (and I'm still dealing with a lot of the things I've come to find out about myself and other people), I'd still rather know. It's helped me to forgive and even sometimes to forget because I've moved on. What a life.
