I am still contemplating whether I should write this or not…but here goes. There is no privacy anymore. Whether it’s the current blog-of-the-moment spilling everyone’s dirty secrets or your personal page of photos and facts about yourself. I know a lot of people who are very sensitive about it that they refuse to participate either directly or indirectly with peer sites. I for one have written countless entries about why I think I write in this blog. Aside from the fact that I’ve been doing it for more than five years! But more than a habit, it has been a nice means of practicing my writing, a commerce with my emotions and recent thoughts or sometimes just a means of imparting my daily duties to friends and family. For whatever reason, it is a risk. A hazard in which I voluntarily engage in where I could be criticized or even stalked. I refuse to give in to whatever impudence I may be faced with – it could be an ex-boyfriend or his current girlfriend spying on me, it could be someone passing judgment and creating their own conclusions of who I am – all based on a few morsels of html that I willingly endow them with. I have been disparaged in the past by something I had written – I own up to that and had apologized. It taught me to be more careful with words, both written or verbally cited. But now it bothers me when I see someone’s face or IP address on my personal sites. Not that they are really private given their online nature. I shouldn’t be. By being there I have given them the license to look and leer all they want. I just hope that people remain open to what they are being given privilege to. Well, I’m only speaking for myself anyway. My open communication is not meant to be harmful so I hope that nobody uses it for malicious intents. I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
See I'm a young soul in this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout what is true and fake
But why all this hate? try to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make |
I was curious and listened to the embedded music. Never attempted to do this in any of your other blogs....but I found the song really facinating: the melody and the lyrics. There's that part where the melody was somewhat forced to jive with the lyrocs, but that's immaterial. Paying attention to the words, made me think that perhaps you posted this song from the perspective of your ex (who's in NC)....(BTW: I just assumed that something happened in between since you had a big gap in your blog when you moved from one blogsite to another. I forget how I managed to find your current site since you made it a real big secret.) Anyways, somehow that's the impression I got listening to this song....it's not your own perspective but someone else's....just blabbing here...Happy Easter!
