What The Watcher Has Seen

Initial Thoughts

Interesting. I thought that this would be easy, but I
realize now that theirs more to this diary-thing than I
originally assumed. I don't usually do this sort of thing
(posting my thoughts for all to see) but as I've been
mentioned by more than one person here, I figured I should
have my own voice, so that I'm not judged to easily or
quickly.

I guess I should give out some personal details, now
shouldn't I. I'm a 17-year-old, white Canadian, who's
currently employed, attending school, and, for better or
worse, single.

Alone seems to be a better word though. I've got some
great friends, mind you, who are always there with an
attentive ear and an open mind, but my life has always been
one of isolation, partly due to choice, partly due to
fate. And like everything in life, that has it's pro's and
con's. One the one hand, if I'm alone I can't upset people
with or involve them in things of my life that would only
depress and hurt them. On the other hand, I find it's a
tough road to walk with no one to talk to.

But then (given the chance) I doubt I'd talk. I'm an
introvert, a person who keeps to himself because that (to
me) is the way it's always been. Sure, I could speak to my
friends about what's troubling me and what I'm really all
about, but I did that once, and I got betrayal in return.
So now I am who I am, a quiet one who (on the upside) is
trusted with secretes. That's one thing a value in my
friends, trust. Secretes, however, is a commodity I love
to "have is stock", for gaining them is (to me) an
interesting thing. It requires trust from both parties,
and knowledge in several different things going on in
people's lives. No, I'm not a gossip, I just like to know
what's going on around me (in reference to friends and
life) so that I can help in any way I can.

I been rambleing again, next time I'll try not to.

Great
