It's 2021, it's NOT over, but I'm at peace. |

I would like to write a big long journal entry in here, but in actuality I'm doing well. I'm not desperately looking to post on Gaia like I used to, and it feels... refreshing? I used to feel the need to cling to people and numbers and responses as if they were going to help me feel something, but it really didn't. That doesn't mean I still don't have a crutch and I find myself posting on Gaia or Twitter or the likes, but I'm being more present in the real world that's still hitting us with bricks of s**t on the daily.
Which brings me to Covid. I honestly feel a lot different about it since I've had my vaccine and someone in my immediate family already had it. It's still VERY scary, but I can cope with it now. I just wish other people would cope with it in ways that are more ethical to the rest of the world. I don't ever want to wish someone unwell, but I do want to wish people be safer with their decisions even if they don't choose the vaccine.
Completely sliding away from the topic I just posted, I wanted to update on this with the fact that I don't really have an interest in e-journaling much anymore. The premise behind it was rather neat when I first started it out, but it feel is impersonal and lackluster when you put it into action. I can't really work things out in the way that pen or pencil on paper does that.
SO, I've taken up journaling for real, and I never posted about it on this site because I didn't really think it was going to add up to much of anything. That started back in 2018, and I had gotten through a year of journaling when I had posted last (of course) One of my first entries talked about how I came out, and it's grown to be SO much more and includes some mental thought processing, life events, and ranting than I needed to portray because it was bubbling in my mind at the time. Thank God I was supplied with that method to work it through, and that He was there to guide me through it.
Now that it's been 4 years worth of journaling, I'm nearing my last pages on that specific journal, but I now have a fountain pen and ink information / thoughts journal, an ink sketch journal, and a catch-all journal that I've been using recently as a bible study notes journal and guide. I feel a lot more fulfilled keeping myself busy with those books than I ever would posting random nonsense on this blog style format shenanigan online. It almost makes me feel like an old timey whiny bumblebutt. Oh well.
Anyway, if you're reading this and you somehow caught that part about the fountain pens and inks... I have a Cross Bailey Light M, a Cross Aventura M, a Pilot Parallel 3.8 mm, and a Duke Ruby Fude. I want to try out daily carry sometime, but I don't know how willing I am to try it out since I only have 2 pens that I can use to write normally with. My inks I have are all Herbin and they are Rouge Opera, Poussiere De Lune, Perle Noir, and Encre Brun with Cacao Parfum. I have inked up all of my pens, and I need to probably limit myself and shut down on 2 or 3 of them since I am starting to fall short on two of them. OH, and I also have a molshine glass dip pen. Feel free to DM me to see how I feel about these pens and inks or if you want to geek out about them!
Other than that, I literally have nothing else to say. I think I'm gonna close this out with saying that I'm well, and that I'm tired. This is probably going to be my last e-journal on here, and I hope that it's true. If you've read this and catch me writing another, TOTALLY comment on the next entry. LMAO
Goodnight, y'all!
