Thoughts

For as much as I share images on this blog, I hardly ever really write anything. Perhaps it’s my lack of muse, or the rusty feeling of not having written anything thing in a while, but I have been thinking lately and this seemed like the most appropriate place in which to write about it.

Anonymity is a big part of the Internet, and with that comes keeping things for yourself. Never really revealing anything about who you are, what you do, or what your thoughts, feelings, emotions are. Rarely do I ever show my true self. To most, I’m a quiet individual who keeps to himself, hardly speaks up, and mostly browses the Web. The 500+ followers that see my content on here probably gather that I can be a very dark, depressive, morbid person. I wouldn’t put that past them as they’d be right.

But why? What manifestation of the mind can consume someone so much that they become something like that? In an era where depression, suicide, self-harm, and insanity are seen as fads; i.e. something cool to do because it’s fun to act crazy or dark... this blog can seem like just one of hundreds that float around the Internet coming from a person who sees themselves as edgy.

But no. The pictures I post on here do give me some sense of comfort, and the genre of music I like does calm me down. I’m glad that 500+ people feel the same way. And for that I thank you.
