I am/am not my E-Life
Recently, I have come under a lot of fire for things that have been posted here and on other social media outlets that I am apart of. I’ve also realized that what I’ve produced electronically is a metaphor for what I may feel about a current situation. Now why would I do such a thing? Why would I say something here instead of just saying it to that person’s face? It’s simple. It’s because I know that they would read it. Most of the time when I blog, or tweet, or update my facebook status, it’s uniquely directed toward one person. It might be a girl I”m dating, or a girl I like, or the guy who stepped on my shoe on the train. So Sean, why don’t you stop acting like a bitch and say it to their face? Maybe this is just for me, but you have to take a step out of the situation to get your thoughts together. Maybe when you think of telling that person how you feel, you become so blinded with it, your thoughts don’t come out clear. I like to see my words. I’m used to it. I’m part of a different generation.
Now some people may bring up the issue of privacy. I shouldn’t talk about people before I say something to that person first. I say that’s ridiculous. This is how I vent. This is how I get away from the frustration that they brought me. Yes I believe in keeping things sacred, but that was lost when I became upset or whatever other emotion that can come up.. All this is a bigger medium for help. In fact, I make myself more vulnerable by exposing myself this way. I wouldn’t try to intentionally embarrass anybody in this fashion.
With that said, should I be looked at differently or judged from what I’ve done? Yes, and no. Yes because I did it and no matter what my own personal justification was for doing it, people will get mad for not keeping matters in house. No because a lot of people who read this don’t know me personally. No because if you know me, you know I would never intentionally try to hurt someone. Like any human, I react off emotion, and this is an outlet.
U really need to grow all the way the fuck up. like you are a walking contradictory. what the hell is wrong with your premature thought processes? Ladies beware of little boys posing as men. Pussy.
I cannot stress the PUSSY part enough…
I find your post interesting, way off base, but interesting. You really need to look deep in yourself and do some soul searching. your words seems to be, lacking meaning. metaphor? u really need to learn how to deal with your emotions in a productive way before u can truly capture the essence of writing in metaphor.
At least you’re not an anonymous punk. The funny thing is…clearly you get hits!
I find it highly ironic that someone who leaves a comment without posting their real name is here telling someone to grow up. And if they know you well enough that they can make the claim to call you a “walking contradictory” (although i think they meant contradiction), why not just “grow up” and claim your comment with the name the writer knows you by. oh, and if they don’t know you, why are they here being negative? (i’m sure i just opened myself up for some of the “grown up” backlash, but oh well.)
once again, i give you props on your blog. it takes a lot to express yourself in such a public way, opening yourself up to scrutiny, unwarranted or not. you’ve grown a lot and i’m glad your showing that through this blog. =)
Thanks Shakeela and Kat. To shellyanne, writing is just a hobby of mine. Plus I think that the blog right here allows me to capture emotions in a productive way. The writing in metaphors part is strictly for people that know about the situation and can understand it. Everyone who reads my post won’t be able to grasp the meaning behind it but I make it general enough just to make a point.
