I'm in the bubbling up stage, not ready to write yet, at least not to put anything much online. My Imaginary Friend puts up with my daily mental chatter and my analysis of my dreams. Yes, we are on speaking terms again.

The next part of that Charles Bukowski quote goes:

Yet when I begin to doubt my ability to work the word I simply read another writer and then I know that I have nothing to worry about. My contest is only with myself: to do it right, with power and force and delight and gamble...

I relate to the need to get the words down (and in my case create images), and I have a need to do it my own way.

I didn't know I had a Windows Live Space. I had been using an old Hotmail sign in page and didn't know things had changed. When I found out, I was looking around and then just wanted to test some things out to see how it worked there. I already have a blog that I haven't been using.

I have mostly just observed the Spaces community. I would like to thank those who have allowed me a glimpse into their thoughts, feelings and lives.

"Not knowing when the dawn will come I open every door."
