moving through rough waters...

so for the past few days i've been debating on whether or not to remove my last two posts, or perhaps to post some sort of apology and explanation. then i realized something...

it's my blog, and i'll vent if i want to!

the truth is, i used to have a completely separate blog that i kept secret and hidden for venting similar feelings. it's been quite awhile since i deleted that blog and i'm just now getting to the point where i'm comfortable using this space for what i originally created and intended it for.

look, here's the thing...this is a place where i can, and will continue to choose to, be honest. if i go censoring myself for the sake of someones feelings, then i am not only lying to everyone, but i'm also not allowing myself something i rarely do anyway, which is to feel and express those feelings.

for those of you who may have had issues with my last couple posts, or any previous ones for that matter, feel free to take it up with me. i mean really...for those of you in my personal life, don't wait for me to come you about it. once i write it on here, i've said what i needed to say. that's kind of the point.

as for that post that sparked this particular entry...i've decided i'm just giving everyone space. seems to be the simplest and most effective solution to the whole situation. it was definitely reaffirming to find out that i wasn't the only one feeling that way, however, as i discovered after talking with a friend the next day. so see? if nothing else, it opened up a platform for communication. and i feel okay about that.
