Thank you so much. It is rewarding to hear that. I think sometimes we all want to say something, but often we don't know how. I once posted something about answers I'd never have unless I was asked the questions. Sometimes people ask the wrong questions. It is so often not the typical "What's your favorite movie?," but rather things like "Why do you wear so many sweaters?" that make you sit and question things you do commonplace that even you failed to ask yourself. Why? Sometimes "just because I do" will not satisfy yourself anymore than it will satisfy others. You figure "is that the only answer I got?" and before long you reach deep within yourself and extract something. Vunerabilities, comforts, and some memory we placed deep back in ourselves.

You seem to have insecurities about your actions in public settings and your ability to hold a conversation when you express yourself so well in print. Sometimes I find that it is easier as well to type things out than speak them because it gives me more time to compose my thoughts. I can backspace.

Either way, never doubt your intelligence. You are very bright and introspective.

hey! this is totally unrelated to your post, but i just wanted to let you know that i'll be up on the 31st and probably chilling out at la alameda with Amy and her husband and hethur. but i'll give you a call when i get up. i plan on party hopping and such and possibly even going out to see hometownmadison et al if you and brooke are going out there at any point during the weekend. alright, talk to you later!

much love,
me.

"Hethur" hahaha is she still spelling it that way or is that just how you distinguish her? I didn't know hometownmadison was planning anything. I haven't talked to him in some time, but I think we may have a previous engagement and I owe it to a good friend to make sure to attend. If you want I may see if they wouldn't mind the extra company. You didn't get an opportunity to met this person and I think you and everyone else will like him and vice versa. It'll be nice to see Hethur I've not seen her in some time. If not to spend the night partying together let me know when you are in town perhaps you will still get to hang out with us before the evening kicks off.

nah, she spells it heather now, but i just got used to hethur. just like i'll never get used to lane.

oh, i have no idea as to whether or not there is anything going on with hometownmadison. i just assumed that there would be :)

anyhow, i'll be giving loads of people calls when i get to town, so i'm sure i'll see you sometime before the weekend's festivities are over. have fun until then! *chuu chuu*

there's a tribe of native americans that let the babies get burned by the campfire just a bit so they'll know not to go near it anymore. if there is always someone there swooping you away without telling you why something is wrong, you'll never learn the realities, but only the instilled rules of society.

Exactly, you are always good to point out how socialization relate to my posts. You place in it a good context also. If things are just instilled we do not look at the why. I think sometimes even through trail we come out with a better understanding of why such things exist. Sometimes I think we've been conditioned to stay away from things we aren't supposed to know. For every multitude of stories of truth and pain lies a singular treasure that has been buried in lies and resting safely underneath a mountain of fear.

fear isn't a mountain, it's a wool blanket.
