Up, down, up, down, up diddy dum
I should chart my angst levels on my blog, really I should. Perhaps not for any rational purpose other than to create a suitably chaotic graph apropos of nothing in particular. I do worry a little that I occasionally give entirely the wrong impression of what's going on in my life or in my thoughts, purely for the sake of having to something to write about. Oftentimes I'll sit down to write about a particular happening and then churn out something else entirely, something I later look back on and think: "I wrote that?" I'm a bit concerned that such postings seem to spewing forth with increased frequency, though as a consequence of what, I'm not entirely sure. On the other hand, it's not as though I've gone through everything I've written to see how true that is. It may well not be. Which brings me back the charting. There's nothing like pretty graphs filled with lots of confusing lines and figures to take one's mind of one's angst is there?
Anyway, I suppose this is my way of apologising for coming across as a bit of a whinger recently. In future I'll try and reserve it until I have good reason. Though in future I'll also try not to have good reason too. If that makes any sense...
Thought iMark at August 8, 2004 09:20 PM | TrackBackOkay, so speaking with my counselor hat on.. it would appear that when you post these blogs (the ones where later you feel that they have apperaed negative or not indicative of your generally percieved feelings) you are in fact "venting". Allowing an emotional release for feelings which your subconsious is at least aware of. Everyone needs oneone to purge upon (nice image there! ), and it is amongst freinds that we can be this honets, and get honest feedback from...
We are your freinds and believe me.. (non-conselor hat on now).. your belief that you are swinging from one extreme to another is no more than any other human being.. it makes you human (and keeping this in, doesn't help you or us, in trying to be the best friends we can be..). So.. what I'm trying to say is don't stop posting. Honesty of feelings is good, and bottom line (we all knew you were neutotic YEARS ago, and STILL love ya!)
