It Goes Like This



Well this post won't be long, as it is late, but I wanted to post something small to get started. The blogosphere is a place dominated stay-at-home-moms trying to one-up each other with cute photos of their kids, and recipes handed down by great aunt marge and by angsty teens lamenting that their boyfriend broke up with them after one week. I am neither of those, as I am not married, nor a teen. So why insert myself into this blogosphere, where no one will ever blink an eye at another blog? Here's my reason for this blog: as this blog is anonymous, it will serve as a kind of journal for me. I'll be free to say anything. This may seem kind of obvious but journals are amazing things. Looking at my journals, handwritten and electronic, I see a lot of memories that would be otherwise forgotten if not recorded. This blog is a place where I can write my memories, good and bad, for later reflection. It's my own personal history, starting now. I don't know how often I'll post, but I do know that when I do, it will mean something to me. No matter how trivial my post, or silly the memory, it will be important that I will want to remember it forever. My hope is that someday I can even show this journal to my kids so they will learn about these days, times, and what I went through.

Well, that's enough for tonight.
