Broken Record

I know I say this all the time, but I want to write more.  I want to blog.  I want to share my ideas, my thoughts, my opinions, my observations...I wrote in a journal consistently from the summer before ninth grade through after college and somehow that just evaporated from my life.  I think I wrote a journal to feel known.  I've spent the majority of my life in the background, unnoticed and unobserved, and journaling was a way to be heard without having to risk finding someone to listen.  I guess I want that now.  I'm feeling low - empty, sad, self-conscious - and I want a way out.  Maybe this isn't the best way, but it's not my only avenue.  Ugh...I'm just rambling.  Anyway, it's time to fix the record, stop saying I'm going to write more, and actually start doing it.  Here I go...
