Dear Blog

What do I do when I get overwhelmed with emotion? I write. I have journal after journal after journal shoved away in my bedside table filled with my ranting. Well congratulations blog because today is your lucky day. My bedside table is now so full that it has forced me to go cyber. You are a much more space efficient place to express myself. Plus I can type much more ferociously than writing by hand. Sure, there's a difference between a closed journal tucked away with all my secrets stowed between the pages and a blog left wide open for bazzillions of unfamiliar eyes to read but it's a new year and that means a new way of doing things. Starting with you. In the past I might worry about offending some of those brazen eyes casting judgment on me. But I'm not afraid of them anymore. You are mine and I will write what I want to. Sometimes I might defile you with some colorful language, but you are used to that by now. I might be painfully honest but it will be so freeing! Are you ready?
