various friends from different phases and stages of life- most of whom don't know each other. But I feel like they could, must, or should just because they have you know, the friendship with me in common. The idea of being honest with any or all of them about where I'm at or been or whatever is a little scary... but the idea of everybody I'd like to communicate with having an open interactive forum on this Blog is even more daunting. However, I am just going to play with the format and possibilities ans see if it leads anywhere.
Back in the day, way way back before the Internet and E mail I used to write the occasional letter. Such communication was at times a big reason for some of the relationships and connections and bonds with the people written to being good and strong and long term freinds- lifelong friends in some cases. And not so long in some cases- many cases even one could say- simply because the communication waned. Which happens. Life goes on. And I know that. Salgo lo que salgo.
But maybe it's also just because as this communication revolution that technology has facilitated has rolled through our lives it's easier to communicate half assedly and harder to really say anything real to the people you'd most like to, you know, keep it real with. So to the extent that this effort, and this part of me trying to get my own writing and miscellaneous other creative efforts unclogged, something will come of this. It's not like various kinds of "social networks" aren't all over the place and part of peoples lives. I think what I am trying to do though is to interpolate back some towards people I have already known and been tight with on one level or another and say hey, what is up. Join this experiment. And see where it might lead.
