sometimes i think i need to take one big giant leap backwards and return to a world where i am not included in every single person i know (or maybe barely know)'s thoughts and judgements. there have been two instances this week that have set me off to the point of raving lunacy, due to the extreme disagreements i have encountered. i realize that my political, religious, community, and social views may differ greatly from a lot of people out there. including a lot of my friends. so, i tend to shy away from heated conversations or even online debates (although i want nothing more than to dive headfirst with vocal-fists flying and statistics - of course supporting my concepts- streaming.) this week i nearly disabled my facebook account. i nearly stopped reading all blogs. i just get livid with the stupidity of some people's reasoning.
and this is where i will stop myself from continuing. because i did not wage war with my 'friends' on-line, at the time the battles were bursting inside me, so there is no sense in perpetuating it here. but i will say, that i am impressed at my abilities to hold my tongue, because a few years back, i know i would not have. and i have no desire to lost friendships (some lasting lifetimes) due to the fact that i am now privy to every inner thought and feeling of every single person out there.
on that note, what else can i expect when i, too, bare my soul on the interwebs. i share my intimate thoughts and muses with a general public, some of whom i may have never even laid eyes upon.) i am usually okay with this, but tonight, i am feeling like i may (or may not- depending on how long my rages are raging) be leaving my self-imposed position of daily thoughts reporter. i may have to take a break, or just cut it down to a simple report of my children's progress in life. i may not. i don't know. i'm worked up tonight. and it shall pass. but for now, i will say that i may (or may not) see you all tomorrow.
