Introspection on the nature of the Selves
Feb. 22nd, 2006 01:23 pm( Read with an open mind. )
Among those who read this entry, there will be people who are fascinated and intrigued and may even believe me. There will be people who see it as a lovely way to organize my own creative mind, but still see it as fantasy. And there will be those who will believe I need therapy because I shouldn't be talking about weird magical voices in my head, and no I really don't have alter egos who are really aspects of my soul, I'm just a lunatic, but it's cute the way I try and map it all out; silly girl go back to your childish delusions.
The decision to post this to my LiveJournal -- and make it public -- was not without hesitation. I am putting a huge, huge declaration about myself -- my Selves -- out there. I don't expect everyone to say, "Wow, that's great! Yay for you!"
I did not write this for anyone but me. I needed to write it down, "say it out loud", if you will, so I can better grasp it. Acknowledging it is a good way to understand it best.
If people choose to comment, they may, and I welcome it.
But this is who I am. This is who I have always been. And I think that those who know me best, believe in me, and respect me, should be able to respect these parts as well.
