Anyways, I was just talking about something I was thinking about today...
I was pondering the idea of how easy it is to be vulnerable when it comes to people we don't know. How it's so much easier to be open because you know there is going to be no baggage, no judgement, no expectations, just straight up facts. It's kind of nice sometimes to find opportunities like that with people that don't expect. It's a nice surprise.
I think it's kind of the same with blogging. It's a nice escape, to be able to just talk and talk and whoever wants to listen (or read) will. And sometimes, it doesn't even matter if no one IS listening, it's just to be able to talk things out, and not be afraid of what people will think.
That's the nice thing about speaking to people you're not best friends with. (Not that it ISN'T nice to talk to your best friends too, because that's a great thing as well But this is a different kind of nice, y'know?) They don't have all these pre-conceived notions of who you are, and the person they see in front of them, and the stories they are hearing...that's all they know. And that moment, and those memories/ facts are all that matter. That's kind of nice isn't it? To just be able to step away from who we are and just be the person right in that moment.
It's nice...to be able to tap into someone's life. Even for just a few moments, and hear how they perceive the world, and their memories, their lessons learned. I don't know. I just think it's kind of an amazing thing when people let you in, because it's not something that happens everyday. Vulnerability is a crazy thing isn't it? I mean...it is.
