Well, I feel like I have successfully transferred to a new, exclusive journal. I guess this will remain the only public entry. I'll eventually bring all my friends over. Of course, I'll keep my other name, and update there occassionally.
I have wanted to change my email, livejournal, and AIM name for a while. The other one is so outdated. I like this one a lot better, it has a lot of meaning and emotion behind it. I believe that the phrase, 'Lost for you' fits my life right now- perfectly! I guess that is really hard to explain, well it is hard to explain. Still, it is what I feel right now.
I don't even like the song Crash by Dave Matthews Band that much. I do have the CD, my favorite is #41. So, I was trying to fall asleep listening to the CD. Crash was on and once Dave Matthews sang those three words something clicked. I guess I had been thinking about a certain someone and everything just fell in to place. But, I don't want to think of this new name as just a temporary feeling- like a crush. I know it is something better. I guess it is weird to say that so much rests upon a screenname, nothing more than a few keys...but I've always been very sentimental. This is no different.
My other name, which I'm attempting not to disclose, was very old. It was from a time when I was a different person. As much as I'd like to say I haven't change, I know otherwise. 'I ain't changed, but man I know I ain't the same' is a lyric that might describe how I feel about myself over the past four years. The other name was from when I had a different mindset; my world unfortunately revolved around one person. Though I miss those days dearly, I refuse to go back...
And I guess that is why leaving that simple name behind means so much to me. It symbolizes much more than just running from robots and spam. I'm moving on, I'm growing older and I'm leaving the past where it belongs...in the past. I hope it stays that way.
