gerbieOnce in a while I look at my user info, scratch some interests, add others. See if my LJ-friends still call me friends. Check how often I have posted. As if it matters. See how I can write friends-only posts, but never seem to find the information on that. One day I read a new name in the list. Someone named me as a friend. Fairly new experience, mostly I find somebody, put them on my list and then they return the favour.
the_pheonix is the one. I read his journal, interesting story on his youth. I added him to my list and don't regret it. His journal is very time consuming, but extremely worthwhile. His entries read like he's talking to you, and I mean that literally, hardly any punctuation, words written as pronounced, who cares about grammar. He never starts a new paragraph, but it fits his style. He is going trhough a hard time and seems somehow he's using LJ semi-therapeutic, what he writes is deeper than most people dare to do, his soul is on the screen for anybody to read. There are plenty of people here in LJ-land who open up, but I haven't seen anyone doing it as touching as the_pheonix. Reading his last entries he's nowhere near rising from the flames yet, but let's hope he will. He's disabled the 'comment'-option, so there's no possibility to react, but perhaps this way I can show that I 'enjoy' reading his misery, choice of words might not be appropriate there actually. Anyway, the_pheonix, I hope you're doing okay, happy birthday and keep writing. Everybody else: go and read.
