La Cachita

I needed this space again. Letting words flow and letting my mind flow. Letting creativity flow. Every social media now feels saturated with the expectations created by years of being there or having memories of adulthood, successes and failures and reinventions of myself that seem a bit stagnant. They even seem a bit old. I like the spaces of a journal. It lets a person be a person - create at her space. Let her failures be human, natural, personal. I need to escape the rigidity of social media and journal again. I've been enjoying private journaling for a bit, but have not kept enough with it. Now I think keeping my sister Zoe company in dreamwidth is going to give me something of an indirect accountability. Like a push to write so I can share again, connect again, let a real me express somewhere...in some publication of the internet or some medium that is not as saturated and stiff. I have been thinking of this journal and it will have some cross posting features and cross medium sharing so that I can connect what I say in different places to what I'm feeling. Especially some of the personal things I may share in private photo albums. The great thing about this method of journaling is that filtering is easier I believe. Filtering in places like social media is impossible due to the extensive networks of people who may share with other people regardless of confidentiality disclaimers. I may also publish here some of the writing that came out during my private journaling to keep the creative flow and the connection going. I am also thinking of doing multi media postings here for any art I may explore that is not digital.

Here is to a new page turning...
