The Anti-Blog
![]() | The White Stripes - Truth Doesn't Make a Noise |
I touched on it a little bit earlier, and now I want to go into it a little more. I'm not sure exactly why people have taken the blog idea and morphed it into this personal hellhole that they use to complain about every insignificant thing in their lives. Sometimes I can't even read the stuff from the people I know, because it's too melodramatic and pitiful. I think the most valuable bit of info that I've taken away from my communications classes is how your mood spreads so easily to other people. Depressed people tend to make the people around them depressed, etc.
So here I am to hopefully make whatever random person is looking at my blog feel just a bit better. I've come to a point in my life where I'm absolutely content with who I am and where I am. My trip to Las Vegas, for a multitude of reasons, caused some switch to flip in my brain, and that's about the best job I can do at describing it. I used to be good at projecting confidence, but only from a distance. Now that switch has completely changed me as a person. I'm approaching people differently, caring less about appearances, and generally feeling good.
I wish there were some way to really get this feeling across, but I'm just not that good of a writer...haha. Maybe it's something that dawns on someone as they get older, maybe not. All I know is that I'm thankful for this last trip to Vegas, and feel like it was truly a turning point in my life. We shall see a few months from now if I'm still feeling this benevolent and tranquil.
