So open and honest – these are the things worth reading.

Thanks for the amazing inspiration. I stole the activity, partook in the painstakingly honest and self reflective exercise and without too much fear – posted it to my blog. Enjoy!

I live inside the head of a lunatic. I work under a large, heavy rock. I talk to calm myself down. I wish I tried to be a photographer before I became a banker. I enjoy letting my mind wander. I look like I’m in my thirties. I smell after soccer practice. I hide but nobody’s looking for me. I pray that someone’s listening to my prayers. I walk into walls while looking. I sing praises to those who can help me see the lighter side. I can but often I don’t. I watch the clock but it’s not moving. I yearn for the days when I didn’t worry about earning a living. I daydream out loud, usually at business meeting. I want to understand my feelings. I cry for the good guy. I read to find answers. I love with my soul. I wonder why others don’t. I touch the phone but I dare not call. I hurt but don’t show scars. I fear failure. I hope my children will have a better life. I break bread with friends. I eat when I’m not hungry. I quit being nice to people that I don’t like. I bathe regularly. I drink sand and pretend it is water. I save receipts and then forget where I put them. I hug with my heart. I miss living closer to old friends. I forgive without first finding resolution. I’ve learned that there are things I can’t change. I have to get up too early. I don’t have the confidence that I used to have. I kiss an empty heart. I wonder why I didn’t leave this on my blog.

“I hide my vibrator—okay, my vibrators—when I go out of town, even if nobody is staying at my house.”

…and they are usually displayed on the night stand, coffee table or turn up in other random places around the house? I hide mine even when I don’t go away…and at the moment, i live alone. hmmmm?
i should probably take a shot at this writing exercise.!!

This is one of the most honest, beautiful pieces you’ve written. You should consider doing some formating and printing it. It would be a great piece to frame and hang in your house or at least put into a scrapbook somewhere for days when you need to look at it. It’s really wonderful!

wow- thanks for posting this. I read it twice…
I think I’ll do the same but not sure I’m as gutsy as you to post it. Maybe.

Thanks for sharing the writing exercise. I feel compelled to do write my own, but I don’t know if I could be as brave as you and put it on my blog. I always feel self-conscious about revealing too much of my inner-world, but that’s what blogs are for, right?
