Memoirs of an Amnesiac

While checking other threads today, I was tempted to start a new one myself, having recalled the last time I ever did. I went to the Relationship forums and have found quite some uncanny topics. There were those I find really interesting but there are those, like the many news I read and watch on TV, trite and lacks originality and does not evoke anything in me.

This will probably be my poor attempt at trying to come up with a thread (through a blog post) where I don't want people to really talk about it. Like a one-way street, I just want to be read. That's all.

I do have relationship problems of my own. But most of the time, I just want to let them simmer down, as when one is cooking something. Not that I am fond of cooking but that I find a parallelism with cooking as in life.

When struck with problems, our very first reaction is to fight back or defend ourselves. There is such a thing as pride. I must have been the woman with most inflated pride. Everything I do, always has to be about my pride. Well, this had worked to my advantage, in many ways I had ever thought possible. There were times that I had been jeopardized by my pride, too. But then, with age and experience, I have learned to balance everything.

Well, what am I trying to prove? Don't get me wrong. I am not against anyone who air their problems (especially those concerning the heart), via the cyberspace. I have seen how indispensable the world wide web could be in terms of not only promoting business but also the emotional wellness of anyone. It could be a very good avenue for easing out one's pain, expressing redresses and just venting out repressed emotions within, waiting painstakingly for anyone to notice it.

It's just that before one gets to solicit advices from anyone, one must think quite clearly beforehand what one needs help with. There are those who (just for the sake of posting) have added tons of pages to forums. In my honest opinion, most of the problems, really do require a good deal of common sense. Some are even quite private to even expose to the public. Others, may need a little time, (and simmering down) before they could even get to be solved.

I respect every thread starter as I have been one myself. I just think that maybe it's high time we reconsider posting problems, in the light of those who would read them.

There. I have written all, even when everything is already said and done...
