Reflections and Goodbyes
This is the last Xanga entry I will ever write.
This website won’t exist in a month from now.
It still deserves to be written.
I owe it to myself.
This is for you, Katy.In some ways I feel as if I’ve grown tremendously.
Then I look in the mirror and realize I’m still a goofy, judgmental control freak with a messy life.
I’ve never been and never will be perfect.
My glaring imperfections make me cringe.
They also make me halfway smile and shake my head.
I still strive to be a beautiful, kind human being.
I’m having to relearn to love myself and life every day.
I’ve struggled with countless conflicts and I know they have just begun.This used to be my outlet.
A form of communication with people I knew and strangers I have never met.
It was also a way for me to look back on my life and the people who were a part of it.
I’ll never stop journaling or blogging. It has taught me so much about myself and others.
Xanga has allowed me to connect with people on a level deeper than I could have ever anticipated.
I am going to miss being here. Miss the people I connected with through Xanga that slipped away. I’m going to miss just the sight of the Xanga logo on my internet browser.Now, before I have to say goodbye, I want to thank you.
Thank you Xanga for being a part of my life for nine years.
Thank you Xanga community for your friendship, support, interesting and influential blogs, and opportunities.
Thank you for the good and bad times.
They have changed me in a way that I cannot express.
I love you.
Forever and always.
