Is this goodbye?

I think I'm leaving the blog world for good. But it's hard. I've been blogging for more than a year now and it's like, blogging has become a part of me. I know. Sounds weird. But blogging is more than just that for me. It's an outlet. A space to share my personal thoughts. An escape.

Someone who wasn't supposed to know about my blog managed to read it. I know that by posting on the Internet this is bound to happen. It's ok. Well, alright. It's not. I felt like my privacy was invaded. That I wasn't respected. An overreaction? Probably. But I can't help but feel this way. It's so.... I've got no words to describe it.

He (the one who I was talking about in my previous entries) saw my blog while we were talking. But he asked me first what it was. I told him not to look. And he promised not to. He respected my thoughts and told me that he didn't want to know stuff about me by snooping through my thoughts. But he's not the one I'm pertaining to. He kept his promise. And I trust that he will.

This other person. This person who wasn't supposed to see my blog? He read through it. I don't blame him. Curiosity. Human nature. But I wished he just didn't read it. Well...you're probably reading again right now. Couldn't do anything about that. Guess there's no other way so I'll probably just stop writing.

To my fellowbloggers...

You can message me through YM or you can email me.

So I guess that's it for today...or for good. But of course, I'll still visit your blogs and give my senseless comments :) Thanks everyone!

Ciao!

    Sometimes A and I get into major arguments about the things I put in my blog. Though my intentions were just to let out how I feel, he can't help but feel bad also because what I say can hurt. But one thing is clear: my blog is my blog and he can't censor what I say or put there... and he knows that. Whenever he asks me to delete something, I feel incensed because my blog is one of the few places where I can be free and yet I'm still being restricted. But eventually, it all boils down to it being MY blog and he knows it.

    I'm not saying the person who made you stop blogging does not respect you or your thoughts or your right to free speech... but oh well, to each his own. It's such a loss to the blogging world with you gone. Good luck and hope to see you soon!

    so that's why you suddenly disappeared.

    don't go! if you enjoy something, if it's something that relieves your stress, why let go of it? so what if he read it? don't you feel relieved now that he finally knows your side?

    basta, don't stop blogging.
