Today I set old thoughts free. Drafts had accumulated on my list of posts here, and I knew I couldn't keep them from eyes much longer. Looking back, the experiences seemed so much less isolated. Finally, I was compelled to press that glaring orange PUBLISH POST button to three or four aging works. A cheat softens the blow; they posted under the original date which they were written. But maybe that's not the easy way out. Now you can see the surrounding pieces and puzzle them together. The date at the top is when the thoughts were at their most honest. Sure, you have to dumpster dive to locate them, but ultimately, my heart's wide open.
Some of my most weak thoughts breathed their first today. Long locked up sentiment was released. I post it because I'm not ashamed anymore. I hope that more people can open the doors to their heart. I want to let people in. I want all of me to be known, and I hope that I can be loved despite my moments of weakness and vulnerability, because underlying are strengths and victory. Nothing that won't injure should be reserved selfishly. There's something about people at their most honest that gives me faith that even kids can save the world.
Just to the right, seeing that draft won't be missed.
