Here’s the thing about unfinished business: it won’t go away until you wrap it up. It doesn’t matter how much you wish you could sweep it under the rug, let it go, ignore it, whatever; you simply have to handle your business before you can rest easy. Explains why we like to have closure, yes? Indeed. One cannot hope to move on without laying ghosts/doubts to rest. Should you go on that date? Maybe you ought to consider relocating? Is it time to switch careers? Those are just a few questions you really cannot answer without doing something about them, and if you try to suppress those thoughts you’re just setting yourself up for constant worrying/anxiety. The only way to know if you’re doing the right thing is to do it and damn the consequences. I think.
You know, it’s funny. Before I spread the word about my blog, I didn’t hesitate to say what I really, really thought because it was fairly anonymous and hey, not like my readers knew my identity. These days, though, I find myself tiptoeing on eggshells because I am wary of offending my friends. Sigh. That’s the thing about knowing that a fair slice of your audience knows you, you aren’t so quick to run your mouth or be disparaging about people even though you’d love to gossip once in a while. Not damaging gossip, just stuff that boggles my mind. Relating some events can be negative though, so I guess it’s not such a big loss.
Anyway, I have decided to be unflinchingly honest on this forum. Some of my posts just scratch the surface and don’t truly qualify as the musings of my soul. I mean they’re not that deep, you know? Not like I’m some sage or anything. Yet. 😛 Seriously though, I know I have held back because I’m uneasy baring my soul to cyberspace. But that’s the whole point of having a blog, innit? It’s mine. My voice, my expression, my outlet.
Art is my craft. My expression is art. Love is my passion. I am here to speak my truth and if that rubs you the wrong way, tough. Ha ha, how modest right? So I’m going to call it like I see it for real, no holding back. I hope y’all can take it.
