Purpose

Some people blog to share: ideas, products, creations; others blog to share every intimate detail of their daily lives, and still others blog to uplift people and to help them. I blog as a form of personal expression. I don't expect others to agree with what I say, heck I don't even expect them to care enough to read it. I do this to express myself; if others gain something from my ramblings and can take that with them, I am glad I was able to make a difference. The written word is often how I express myself best. It allows my to put all of the my thoughts together on a page and then sort through them, piecing them together bit by bit until I can make sense of them. Sometimes I get stuck in my own head, all these thoughts and feelings swirling, banging on my skull, sucking the air out of my lungs, then suddenly I'm drowning in thoughts and tears. Tears of frustration and confusion as to how I can feel so much at once and wondering if it's only me that feels this way. Am I the only one that feels like the world is spinning out of control, that nothing will ever go 'right' and that all is lost...just by simply allowing myself to sit and ponder for a moment? I like to think not. I like to think that others out there feel the same way, and they like me don't say anything about it. They allow themselves to continue to drown and numb that horrid sensation with plastered on smiles and meaningless conversation. I like to think that I am not alone. So in conclusion, that is my purpose. To write my emotions and feelings, to convey what others may be to afraid to voice, and to allow myself to no longer feel alone...
