This blog entry is dedicated toall the people who pour themselves onto the web in any way, shape, of form, but in particular I am slicing bread for Emma Blackery, semi-randomly, who has a similar sort of addiction to sharing that I have exhibited oh these many years on the web (and before for those who recall a time before there was such a thing as these interwebs, cybernets, or whatever we shall casually call them as if they are (or it is) old friends), not to say that fleeting moments with any number of children of the . . . (oh what shall we call it to make it seem be cooler than sorbet?) who seem to enjoy being catalogued, categorized, labelled, and numbered exposed in their daily lives (aare they all rich kids?) and personalities to public scrutiny as if that level of documenting a life was just the thing to do for whatever reason.
Here, I do it through the written word. Old school, but my school.
Anyway, wht we have here in this mostly incomplete entry are comments I left on Youtube primarily t Emma Blackery). The video inspiring the comment is incuded just before the comment.
Go.

You've come a long way and now face very cruel public comments and have learned to accept words from strangers as meaningless pain the writer expresses not even meant for you - and yet - know your heart feels the pain even if it not meant for you - all the pain in the world is our collective experience. Wisdom reminds us that the same collective experience includes all the joy in the world too. May the wisdom never fail to light your way to the hope and optimism that shines in your smile.

Being aware of the sensitivity we can feel is a heavy gift, some say burden, I say gift. This perspective of knowing is better than no knowing and it brings a feeling of hope and lift. Solace in dark times is found in the few who understand being aware like you. Never feel alone for there are those who do. My smile is widened believing - you know it's true.

I live there. It is not a way to be successful in by our cultural standards of success, but it is my success in this life. I do stray out from the magical place to work with others so I can pay for survival needs, but in my mind, I never fully leave that wondrous place. The secret is neither do you - I see it in your face. :)

Loneliness is longing for sharing when sharing is not available. Creating words and music and art and putting it on the internet provides a type of sharing that can be done alone, but it can be as much illusion as reality. The internet can touch a heart, but it cannot hold a hand. There is a loneliness that comes from wanting to look into someone's eyes and be seen, felt, and understood, a loneliness that comes from wanting to hold someone's hand when no hand is there. What might happen if we ever lose touch with that loneliness is an answer I'd rather not discover. Long live the Outernet :)

Without sadness, there is no joy - just as without darkness, there is no light. A world without sadness is like a rainbow without the color blue.

So poignant for these times, globally and personally. Prose mixed in with rhymes, gracefully and aggressively. I love how you fill a page with wisdom from another age. My wish for you and your word is... may your messages be heard. :)
