Have others given up trying to communicate their feelings?
by Celtic ini don't think i'll be listened to any more, my story is not worth telling, it is too complex, it causes me too much sadness to try to relate it, too much shame and too much internal pain.
am i the only one that feels that they have given up trying to communicate their feelings here anymore?
like my personality is a sham, i do my best to cope, to be happy, to be this cantankerous old sod that tries to make out to everyone i'm doing well, but ..... anyone?

you know honestly, i think you get the benefit from the telling, expressing your feelings, regardless of who listens, or whether you think it's worth to tell, even if you jsut write 'aaaaaaarggggggghhhhhhhhh', it's expressed something, and i think that benefits you, more so when you actually realise that you can get the same benefit (or more) from expressing yourself in different ways, in your work or hobby or music or writing, this you can do in private or in public, and because of this, whether you feel it 'worth telling' is no longer an issue, because you can tell it in words, write it all down and never post it if you so choose, and probably get the same, if not or more benefit, because you will have controlled it. anyway, i don't mind listening and talking if you ever feel like going into it.
Am I the only one that feels that they have given up trying to communicate their feelings here anymore?
no, you're not the only one... i don't communicate my feelings very much at all, on here or in real life, but i let my torment out in different ways, writing, music, and other things, when i was flat broke and so low, so low i can't even put it into words, i had a P133 computer, and would sit and write, hundreds and hundreds of pages i used to write, just expressing myself, for a few years, and even to some extent today, i could fill a book with it, but it doesn't get shared because it's my private story, you know, snapshots of personal development... i think we develop a great deal when we discover the most effective ways of expressing ourselves, for ourselves, and i think if you document this, you can chart how you have developed, like if i read back through things i was writing back in 1996, 1997, 1998, compared to 2003, 2004, i can see that i have grown, but it will only ever be me who knows the full extent of how much, and have it documented, some things are way too personal to share, but they can still be expressed! had i not done that, i would have probably blasted myself already. anyway that's my 2p are you going to that apostafest that is happening in the uk? i've heard there is one going on soon and may be able to make it.

Do You Defend Your Friends Even When They Are Wrong?
by new light ini know i'm way behind on the personal development thing, here, but do you stick up for certain people no matter what?
i had always thought that standing up for "righteousness" was all that mattered.
now i think its more important to back up loved ones even if they are in the wrong.
-

yep, to all extremes i will defend/stand by my friends, even knowing they are wrong. this being said i would make them aware of the fact that i disagreed, or that i thought the were in err, and i would offer suggestions, but i would do this in private, and if they still felt it was best to pursue their course of action, i would back it at any cost.
the only thing i can think of that i would not back a friend over is if they were trying to get away with child abuse.

by ScoobySnax in"sitting on the fence" "leading a double life" or just a fader.

the closest i've ever been to the truth, was standing between two mirrors.
the closest i've ever been to forever, was trying to see the end.
the simplicity is beyond compare, when into a reflections reflection you stare.
look, and look deep and see what you see, the horror is that you're not even there. -

blimey expl. A nice mild expletive, blimey is (in terms of rudeness) on a par with "wow" or "my goodness". It was originally part of the phrase "cor blimey", which was apparently a contraction of "god blind me" which was in turn an abbreviated version of "may god blind me if it is not so".
