I'm a million people inside one.
 
One day, I am feeling feminine, I wear a skirt, a nice top, put my hair up nice, mayb wear a bit of makeup.
 
The Next, well I could be grungy, jeans, polo shirt, hoodie, hair pulled back, hands in pockets, rock music.
 
And then I'm just me, the person I enjoy being the most, old mucky jeans tucked inside wellies, big fat warm fleace, trudging the fields, stomping through mud, I may, if I'm feeling decidedly adventurous even swing myself up into the arms of one of the great trees and sit and think and dream and plan and forget. But then I have to come back to earth with a bang, and realise my dreams, are about as much use as a tin without and opener. So I stop dreaming and my world becomes flat, and boring and 2-dimensional. new dreams just don't appeal.
 
And then there's the person I have to be, I have to be smartly dressed, well spoken, not sullen but not too chatty either, I have to think before speaking, lest I embarress someone, with some "blonde" comment. I hate that person. That me. The person that I am expected to always be, never me.
 
Society is a depressent. And everyday I have to wake up and say to myself, hello, goodmorning and who are you today.

    Ocean--I hope that you will find that you can be all of who you are here at SC. As polar said, SC is accepting of so many different kinds.

    Ocean.........i perfectly understand how you feel......welcome.
  • Battycat said on Jan 01, 2008....
    Oh, I know that feeling too :-) It's hard work trying to be someone you're not, I have to be someone else at work too, but here you can be yourself :-)
  • circusdoll said on Jan 01, 2008....
    Know the feeling, but in a different way. It's horrible to have to be someone you're not, and plain confusing to have such variant ways that you are. It's good that you know yourself-- that you're not just lost amongst all the demands of the world.

    You have such a wonderful style of writing. I look forward to reading more.

    Ginger, thats nice to know, thank you for stopping by, :)
     
    Battycat, I intend to be myself! But I'm not trying to be someone I'm not in RL, it's just someone I have to be for show, not because I want to be!
     
    Circus, thank you very much for the comment on my writing..:) it is indeed ver confusing!!

    ocean, welcome to soulcast! i see you've already met some of my friends and it's a pleasure to say hello to you.

    one of the things i love about soulcast is that i can be who i really am here, at least more than i can in other parts of my life. i share my friend zayda's hope that you can find who you really are here. :>

    Silver, thank you for your welcome..:)
     
    I am finding out each day that being myself here is a lot easier than being myself in RL. And I am enjoying meeting the friendly "faces" of soulcasters!
  • wakingharmony said on Jan 02, 2008....
    Hello Ocean, I had to check this out and for a minute I wondered if you might be someone already here at Soulcast.... You write very nicely!  Thanks for the read. I find out of all the people I can be I like "Me" the beast  (?) .....he he  was typographical error, meant to say best, then thought about how closely related those two words are. Gosh you only need to add an "A" to make "best"  a "beast."  
  • -ocean- said on Jan 02, 2008....
    Harmony, I love the typo!! You the beast..and what sort of personality comes from that?!!!! lol

Just popping in to say hi! Papa Jack and I are doing well and we are just back from Ohio where we have been visiting our nephew and his wife. We are still enjoying this wonderful weather and have finished many outdoor projects because of it.

Hi peoples!

My name is...oh, wait. I joined SoulCast so people won't know who I am. Right! :D.

I'm here because I don't want people to know who I am. I do have other blogs where I post my FIRST name (no last name because of stalk...
