It's 2011 and I've decided it's time to get back into writing. In the time honoured tradition of making stupid agreements after consuming an entire bottle of champagne on new year's eve, I am bound to write one blog a day during 2011. There is no limit on length or topic so readers (if any) beware...as Truman Capote once said, "The first draft of everything is shit." Don't say you weren't warned =p

Sad Secrets
I saw this tweet today and couldn't help but feel a bit down after realizing just how true both of these statements. The first was written in response to a previous tweet about how so many of the secrets received by Postsecret are sad. The reason the second tweet struck a chord is that while painful and sad memories don't ever really fade, they aren't what I focus on when I look back on what I've gone through. I love thinking back on all the great things that have happened to me, especially when I start feeling down about whatever happens to be going on. Maybe I'm biased because I've recently had my outlook adjusted to a more positive light.
One of the benefits of writing ever day is that I don't really have the luxury of hiding my feelings anymore. I like to think I write best when I let my emotions and thoughts take over (to a point) and try not to force it in a particular direction. Hopefully you all agree =)
