@vega I think I can sympathize with this feeling a bit. I don't think I have it to quite the same degree, but I do kind of miss the Livejournal days where sharing my thoughts and reading what all my friends were sharing felt new and exciting. At the same time, while I do still blog some, it's not with the same abandon, and I doubt it ever will be. Anyway this was really beautifully written and I wanted to thank you for posting it.
