Every few months I have a sudden urge to update the crap out of this thing..and then there’s nothing for a while. Although when those times do hit me, I always appreciate all the support that I seem to find while I'm here. I was looking at my friends list, and I have some friends on here that I have been watching now for years. Its strange, I view those people with no further identification can a username, but I feel like I know them so well. An artist's art is a display of who they are, so i guess we all must know each other pretty well...and on a deep level. Most people meet and it takes, even possibly years, to get to know someone on such an emotional level, but here, your just one click away from reading into someone’s heart and soul. Every time I get on, I find that at least one of my friends have sent out journal entries asking for "help" in some form... a "can someone make some sense of this world" kind of thing. I've done it, and I'm pretty sure that anyone who reads this can own up to doing the same thing, in some form, at some time. How many people have actually found their answers here? I had the urge to title this "I’ve got a question - do you have an answer?" which is kind of an ironic statement, if you think about it. Although, I think I’m going to stick with "clock watching" cause that’s all that this site is. intricate clock-watching. Were spending our time on here, hoping that someone will say something or show us something shocking and life-changing - which is basically what art is - a meaning in life kind of thing (saying that sentence with a content frame of reference though - nothing deep). I feel like a lot of people who's poetry I've read and paintings show us a kind of dark depth to it. What’s wrong with the nostalgic "I painted or wrote this because it was fun and it made me happy to do it?" I guess I’m just thinking. Everything is going pretty amazing with me, incase that was a lingering thought. I like my friends, boyfriend, family, etc. I'm going to college next year, the next phase of my life and I cant wait. Nothing dark - but still intricate and beautiful in it's own way ;]

were all beautiful in our way <3 so i guess why not smile every once in a while. Has anyone ever noticed that even on the darkest of days the grass is still illuminated in contrast to the grey sky? It's actually pretty tight.
