past the surface and into the blog

"and i don't want the world to see me, 'coz i don't think that they'd understand" - goo goo dolls (iris)


blogs can sometimes be so telling.

i just read my friend's blog which gave me some insight to what she was feeling. we don't normally discuss this sorta stuff.

this made me think bout how there’s so much more than what meets the eye. so much that’s underneath the surface.

it’s just like me. i come off as happy and i do believe that that’s my core personality. the happy, bubbly one. but circumstances in life haven’t always made me show that core personality. at least not beyond the surface.

i think we all put up facades. and it’s not even necessarily bad. it’s just a way to cushion our soft, cushy hearts from the big bad world outside. that very same big bad world that had already hurt those soft, cushy hearts to begin with.

and yet we would probably burst if we didn’t vent our feelings out somewhere. hence blogging. ahh yes, blogging brings a form of relief that non bloggers can’t quite imagine. it’s an outlet to release emotions and write down thoughts that you probably can’t actually say out to anyone, much less the people who inspired those emotions and thoughts.

but of ‘coz there’s still so much more than what’s detailed on a blog… so much that’s buried beneath that surface…
