sentient: 'endowed with feeling and unstructured consciousness'. seems to fit.
I started this journal by invitation. if anything appeals to me about keeping a 'LiveJournal', it's the concept of putting out there the thoughts and feelings that might otherwise be kept private. but I'm not entirely sold. there are reason's they are preserved in solitary.
still, I don't much see the point of journalling what I would share with friends when I see them. what would we talk about? or is there a cultural shift toward sharing the previously unspeakable as small talk, in coincidence with the escalation of blogging divulgence?
yet each time I am inspired to empart publically I recoil from the looming threat of social suicide. judgement. humiliation. to undam the inner rapids of my torrent of consciousness betrays the depth of still waters, and subjects the unsuspecting to poorly constructed metaphors. are my inner cognitions really so torrid, so horridly expressed they require eternal internment?
you tell me.
