I was just thinking about my previous entry and how nothing I said in it was really all that riveting or thought provoking. I didn't question whether or not it was worth posting, but I did think about the concept of things being "worthy" of sharing. I guess for me, the thing I love about the journal format over the social media Facebook/Twitter format is that, even if a journal entry is about mundane stupid life shit, it still has more depth than the two sentence status updates I would see on facebook.
When someone talks about the little shit in their day on a journal entry, I get a window into the way they are experiencing their day, rather than just the fact that their day is happening, and then the veneer of what they want others to perceive as their experience of it. I actually have to think about what it is I want to say about my experience, even if the emotion isn't anything more than neutral. I don't get to just throw a picture down and then watch people minimally interact with it through the use of "clever" reacts.
I wish more of my friends would come over here so I could experience their day-to-day this way. Oh well... I am sure with some time something has GOT to give, right? I know I can't be the only one who craves this kind of interaction and would enjoy others participation in it.
In the meantime, I will patiently wait...

I like to know how my friends are doing, how things make them feel, what they consider significant. The message mediums I rely on aren’t great for feelings, and sometimes (a lot of the time) I miss something or am so caught up that I don’t give things the recognition they deserve.
Having a window in to your brain helps put things in to perspective.
Now we just have to convert the third.
