As my erotic blog goodgirlturnedslut.blogspot.com kept filling up with my soul business, I decided I might as well make an honest woman of myself and start up this sister blog. You may justifiably ask why it is that I choose to have my soul's business out on the internet. Well, I'm a a ponderer, a thinker, I seek to understand, often too hard. Focusing my mind to wrap this swirl of thoughts into words that might be comprehensible to another human being is incredibly helpful to me. Yes, of course, I could just write a private journal, but actually it's not the same. Knowing that another person, a person I don't even know, may read my words gives it a whole different impetus. I also believe that as human beings we have a deep need to be seen, witnessed, seen for all of who we are. Just the one girl, just the one person. What is more, I love words, I love language, I love taking complex thoughts and feelings and searching for just the right words until I know you can feel what I'm feeling - you can be right there with me and I no longer alone.

Guilty secret: subscription to "Conversations with God"

I have to confess to a guilty little secret of an entirely unsexual nature. I subscribe to Neale Donald Walsh's daily "What God wants you to know" messages and I absolutely love them. Below is today's message and it's so pertinent to yesterday's post, that I'll reproduce it below:

On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know...
...that safety is not the thing you should look for in the
future. Joy is what you should look for.

Security and joy may not come in the same package.
They can...but they also cannot.  There is no
guarantee.

If your primary concern is a guarantee of security,
you may never experience the truest joys of life.
This is not a suggestion that you become reckless,
but it is an invitation to at least become daring.
