Thanks for visiting my diary. I've been journaling since 1984 and have chosen to share some of my entries online. They are not all positive thoughts, but I hope that reading them might be a blessing to someone who needs encouragement.

If you are just coming to my diary for the first time, please read my introductory entry, where I share some background that is important if you plan to follow this diary regularly.

Please also visit my music page, where you can hear samples from my debut CD, I Believe, which features songs written based on experiences shared in this journal.

thoughts on going to war

In one day the whole world has changed. I never thought about the possibility that we could go to war very much, and I am sure I don't take this whole thing as seriously as some people do because I don't have any close relatives who might have to go or already have gone. In a way, I wish I did. I do feel afraid, but I don't think anyone really cares. They all have boyfriends or brothers who are there or could be drafted if anyone decides to do that. Everyone sits around here in couples, and they hug and cry and stuff. But not me. I feel so lost! There is not anyone here for me in Anderson.

In a way, though, I am not afraid. It all seems so far away, like something in a book or in the past that I am not a part of and am not meant to be a part of. But in a way I want to be a part of it. I feel like the world is leaving me behind, if that's possible. I know it isn't a lot of fun to be worried about people, and really I don't know if I could handle it. But I feel like I can't relate to anyone and people think I don't care.
