Anonymity

Anonymity... what a wonderful idea. You can feel free to speak your mind, without the fear that your "sort of" friend will overhear that you really aren't too fond of her, or that your in-laws will discover (since it seems your husband has no intention of revealing it!) that you are planning to divorce, or any number of things... That's what led me to disconnect this blog from my Facebook account, so that I may feel that freedom for a while, to see how it is... The true question is: why? Isn't it so much easier just to sit down (or lie back on my fluffed-up pillows, maybe) with a notebook and paper and keep a journal? What is it about this little box, with it's access to the infinity that is the 'web' that makes me want to sit and unburden my soul?
