so i have been accused of being sad all the time.

sloppy firsts.
i don’t understand how people write.
how do you write without getting personal? i can’t. an essay, yes - although my opinion always leaps out of the page. a magazine article, yes - although being objective and clinical is so near-impossible that i end up writing book reviews instead.
so then…if you do get personal…if everything you write is a reflection of your thoughts...
