It is half past midnight and I don’t want to go to sleep. I am restless, tense, nervous. There is a tight feeling in my chest and I know what is coming.
Tonight, I read something on Twitter that hit home.
I felt that. Especially because I had a longer post written about my day and that feeling building inside.
Everything will be okay. Everything happens for a reason. People are in our life because we need them, not because we necessarily want them. When they leave, let them go.

Your mention of that tweet made me click on it so I could comment. Yes, all of us who post on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. are wanting attention, and when few – or no one – responds, we feel like shit.

Very true. It’s getting easier (for me) though. And yet… Often enough I feel under-appreciated or whatever… Thank you for seeing me.

I hear you. It can also get quite addictive when people do read and respond, which quickly leads to a disquiet mind; then next comes chasing the next entertaining post. I had to unplug and re-calibrate.

Absolutely. There was a moment when I felt the need to share something new every day. But when something you like doing becomes a chore, it is time to re-evaluate.

I wonder if you also keep a personal journal outside of WordPress?

Yes, I do. Old-school with fountain pen and paper. How about you?
