Watch this space. Or don't, it doesn't matter to me. I should add more now that I post more in communities. I'm not weird or antisocial. Oh wait, yes I am! Silly me... Actually I'm just a quiet and somewhat shy person who has a fairly boring life these days, and that's fine by me.

I had so much more I wanted to say, but when it comes right down to it, I don't think what I say matters. Not to some stranger coming across my journal anyway. I care about my friends here, and they are part of my daily life and are in my thoughts always. They are fine people. I don't actively seek out LJ friends. I do hope to offer support and encouragement where I can with my friends and in the few communities in which I participate.

My life has changed so much in the last few years. I'm almost a different person. I went through some very turbulent life-changing years, and I think I was easily traumatized for a while after that. These days I'm more accepting of life, and of people, although sometimes when the mood strikes I think I make inappropriately harsh comments. Forgive me. I forgive you too.
