I agree with Jen: this is your weblog, and it is meant to be a reflection of your life. If currently you have to deal with a lot of pain, this is the ideal place for you to get it out. What else is a weblog for?

Secondly, I wish you the best in 2008 and I hope the doctors find a cure or whatever it is that is making you ill, very soon.

As someone who constantly wears her heart on her sleeve, and considering the heartache I’ve been going through I would have to say that no – talking/blogging about it does no cheapen the emotions. You’re here to write about your life and right now your life is filled with pain. So write about it.

Rich or famous. I’d rather be neither. I don’t want to be bothered every time I go out, I prefer the freedom. I don’t find fame as glamorous as most ppl seem to think it is.

Regarding riches, I don’t want to be rich either. Just always have enough to survive, and live a comfortable life. I think having too much will make life dull, and in some cases corrupt.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with wearing pain on your sleeve. You shouldn’t feel embarrassed about talking about what you have been going through because it’s real and most people like real.

I just hope 2008 is a better year for you. I’m not one for praying either but you are in my thoughts.

When you “wear your pain on your sleeve” as you put it, it doesn’t, and shouldn’t really cheapen the emotions. They’re still yours and they’re still real and there’s no part of it that seems cheap to me.

I don’t want to speak for everyone else, but it’s been hard watching this happen and not being able to do a damned thing about it. I have a feeling that I *can* speak for everyone else when I say if there was something any of us could do, we would. I’m not much for prayers, but I’m sending you good vibes anyway.

Thanks for the birthday wishes

About your post.. I can see where you’re coming from. I don’t like admitting when I’m ill, or when I’m feeling vulnerable – wearing my heart on my sleeve as you say. However, I’m glad you did fill us all in like you did because it really did help give me a clue into what you’re going through, as have your other entries since.

So no, you shouldn’t let your problems overtake you, but you also should not have to pretend they don’t exist for the sake of anyone or anything.

Best wishes for 2008 Elea!
