back to the basics for the moment

i find it necessary to be a little selfish. i've been blocked for the last few weeks, and it's a direct result of me losing my focus. without me even realizing it, i had turned into a puppet. this blog used to represent my selfish moments of expression, when i could write about whatever was on my mind without thought caring about what others thought.

somehow i got away from that. the more people who read my blog, the more pressure i began to feel about what i was exposing about myself. it's not your fault, really. i think everybody suffers from this every now and again. however, i know i can't allow it to continue. so in an effort to loosen the bricks forming the block in my mind, i'm stripping my blog to the basics and turning the comments off. i'm not sure how long this will last in terms of time, but it will last as long as necessary for me to find my freedom again.

i have no idea what i'm gonna write from here, but i'm excited about it!
