Warning labels
I have been tempted for a few years to have a tattoo in this format that simply is black on top and bottom and says WARNING in the center.Warning- My journal is my own thoughts, and usually mine alone. I am not trying to tell you what to do, how to live your life, or that your choices are wrong. I am not doing it just to piss you off.Warning- My life is my own (well, mostly, see below). I am not living and existing just to make you upset, and if in me you see this, I encourage you to look into yourself and see why you are reacting so strongly.Warning- I live a different life than other humans. My normalcy may not be your normalcy. I am not trying to be what you should aspire to. I am trying to be who I aspire to be. Sometimes it takes me longer than I would like.Warning- I am owned by a non-corporeal being. I was also raised with Catholic leanings. I am a very confusing ball of spirituality for many folks. I am not doing it just to confuse you. I am living my authenticity when and as I can.Warning- I am both hyper-social and anti-social. I swing back and forth, and sometimes this manifests in me wanting to bond for 12 hour long talks with strangers and sometimes means I avoid my friends. Its usually me, rarely about you. I do have middle ground, but it comes and goes, and sometimes I'm not as "on" as I'd like.Warning- I am not psychic. Ok, I am a bit, but not over the internet at least. If you need my help, you have to ask for me to even figure out if I can help. If you are mad at me, I need to be able to talk with you about it (preferably by phone and not in a series of lj responses) lest it get confused by more miscommunication.Warning- I am 29 at the moment of writing this. I might seem "old for my years" because I got in the public BDSM scene at 15, had my BA by 20, etc... but I'm 29. I am still growing up, still making mistakes, still living, learning, loving. I need space to make mistakes, like anyone in their 20s. Like anyone, period.Warning- I have many varied interests in hobbies. I don't just like kink, don't just like gaming, and I may wander away distracted by sparkly things if the world around me becomes just about spiritual evolution, just about good food, just about amazing sex, just about art history... no matter how much I like any of these things.Warning- I am not easily categorizable. I like men, women, and varieties of humans in between. I am not just a switch, I'm a rheostat. I gave up deserts for Lent and yet have dedicated my life as a Shaman to Bear (the deity, see above). I am a homebody who loves to decorate who gets gypsy feet and must travel. I am formal and casual, funny and serious. I am.Warning- I am imperfect.Warning- I believe love comes in many shapes and sizes. That people enter our lives (and come back again) for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. That its hard for me to hate Exes of any sort because I loved them for a reason and that love does not go away. There is no away.... and others I'm sure.I'm tempted.I feel like I need a warning label sometimes. Because I accidentally hurt people, even when I feel like I've been fairly transparent.I am sorry people hurt. (and no, whomever you are reading this, this is not just about you- this is about a handful of specific instances in the past 2 days that I have replied to one on one, but is *also* about a lot of other stuff too... see warnings #1 and 2)
