3. So do I.
That's what makes me a critic, being a bad writer. I just read your latest and I wonder if narcissism is in fact a product of our modern society; after all, the mythic self-lover has been around forevah. I believe we're afflicted by, not self-love, but by indifference toward others, and a lack of interest in ourselves.

Bookmarked it!

4. I think Modernity has invigorated narcissism in our society.
Narcissism is not only tolerated, but expected as a feature of individual success.

And I actually think you're a GOOD writer, from what I've seen.

7. Neat blog--I like your recent post, because it's true.
Edited on Sun Dec-07-08 12:33 AM by vixengrl
Destructive people *don't* often apologize. But I've also found that sometimes people who do apologize make it feel like it's about them, even if you're the one hurt, which makes things worse. It's like a lose/lose. :shrug: Also, if you usually act deliberately and mindfully yourself, you find that even if you've wronged someone, you don't feel exactly like apologizing, so much as "explaining." But "I'm sorry" still seems like the proper way to start, even as a formality.

I like your blog's voice, already, because it's true like that, and makes you think about that sort of thing.


(Disclaimer: I have a blog, myself:

http://vixenstrangelymakesuncommonsense.blogspot.com/ )


It's kind of a catharsis to do a blog--I had an abortive blog before my current one that I got frustrated with and deleted, but I just ended up starting another one. It's odd, I never could keep a diary when I was a teenager, even though people always told me it was good for writing. But it's private. Whether I'm doing fanfic or blogging or being on a forum, I just kind of like putting it out there. It's like what I write matters more if there's a chance of sharing it. Starting a blog is kind of a neat way to really see what matters enough to write about and share. It's a good thing!

9. Have you ever read "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz?
#2: "Don't take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you."

It's a worthwhile read.

:hug:

10. I visited it and I like what you write
And please excuse me for earlier replies to your posts that I know have sometimes left you wondering what I am talking about...I am also a creative person who hasn't felt creative lately because I've been worrying about my own security, like keeping a roof over my head! Would you mind if maybe I go to your blog and post replies sometime about creativity, memories, dreams etc... I like writing also but I am basically visually minded and like to draw...It is how I get rid of my inner demons ...
