Blog Manifesto

Blog Manifesto


This blog is dedicated, as the title would suggest, to the qualities of being young. We are young writers. We are playful and sensitive, fluid and changing. We are unashamed with our art. We wonder at the world, puzzle over the meanings of things and twirl in delight at images and ideas that float by, grabbing at them as they pass. We are curious and constantly inquiring and prying concepts open and taking assumptions apart. We are on the ground, close to the earth. We have bare feet and wiggle our toes into nature. We carry our blankies still and wrap up cozy and comfy with each other and tell ghost stories and shiver at creepy things. We laugh and we cry and we take a lot of naps, drained from our outings and exertions.

We write as gifts to each other, tying them up in ribbon and leaving them around for each other to find, hiding and waiting for the person to wake up and read. Surprise! We weave our stories together to create a bond. One writes, then the other. then another again. We have a shared reality that we have crafted, bit by piece by patch, by string. We write simple, honest authentic things, with our unique voices. You can tell each one of us from the other, without knowing who wrote what. Our voices are clear and gentle and original. We whisper and our personalities roar! Like children, our feelings are strong, our passion for what we write shakes us. We are moved and sometimes left breathless, by our own words or the words of each other. We cannonball into each others spaces. We fall backward into each others writing, like into a pile of leaves or a soft bed. We gobble and grin and ask for more. (footnote kudos to JC)

Then we go to bed, wake up to a new day and do it all over again!

 Ahh boundary..
            Well..I def. stepped over a major one cause if not I wouldn't had deleted all of my friends and be sitting here trying to make myself and everything better again.
             I should had not had done what I had done. And now I am learning from it the hard way. But at least I will learn a leason from it and not do it again. In actuality there are different ways to look at that great big white line that says DO NOT CROSS. Me..I'm one of those that likes to stick my foot on the other side and laugh and say "HA HA I did it what you gonna do now?" I'm a risk taker. I'm willing to try anything at any moment. You ask me to jump in that cold ass water nakie..well uh sure why not? Might be fun. Might freeze me to death but at least I had fun trying it.
            I'm still a risk taker but now instead of just jumping at that very moment..I'm going to barely touch it. See if it feels right first before I ...fall off on the other side.
