Why am I here?

In the day and age of point and click, I'm just not satisfied.

Like most, I am not new to the internet, or even blogging for that matter. I'll even admit to having a MySpace account that I probably check a little too often, but that whole cliche world left something lacking for me.

Anonymity for one.

The desire to rant and rave about people who could be considered your closest friends, mixed with the dread of the thought of them reading your words and offending someone or being judged. The need to get something personal off your chest, but feeling it's too personal to let your friends and neighbors know. I found myself needing a place where I didn't have to watch what I said, a place where I didn't have to worry about what information ended up where or who would find out about what. I wanted a place where everything didn't matter so much but at the same time I could still be heard.

All this left me yearning for the comfort of a place where I can have a voice without being self consious, which led me back here. I love this world. Connecting across any distance with a few key strokes, peeking through a window into other's lives for insight, feedback, advice or even entertainment. I have met some great people here in the past and I looking forward to meeting some more in the future. I encourage anything anyone has to say, as I plan on holding nothing back myself. Everyone deserves a little peace of mind.
