Up at 5am.....

This is what happens when I go to bed at 10pm the previous night.

*yawn*

As cadhla would say, "Meh."

Rules of Engagement......

I've been thinking (a lot) about what happened in my life this past week. I'm still angry, but not as angry as I was on Tuesday night when I got the Howler. Part of me says that I should drop it, that I should let this incident go and move on. Part of me says that I should hang on to it, lest I forget what happened or comes back to haunt me later. Yes, I shouldn't have done what I did at the time, but I felt that person deserved every bit of it. What's that about karma and the Rule of Three?

I know I have shortcomings. We all do. These are the parts of me I hide and deny from others, and from myself. These are what I call my "shadows". Many of them have names. And some have been elusive enough to remain unnamed.

Is LJ an appropriate venue to bring those shadows out into the light? Perhaps, or erhaps not, but there needs to be some boundaries to be set beforehand. Cyberstalkers are everywhere, so this is not a good place to out someone's shadows without safeguards in place.
