I miss journaling, and I find that journaling daily- even if it's just a few words about the events of the day and how I am feeling- is very good for my anxiety. So I am going to make an effort to journal here on an almost-daily basis; I don't want to use LJ anymore due to the new TOS and lack of secure login.
I considered registering a new username. "00goddess" just doesn't feel like who I am anymore, except in the sense that who we are is the sum of all the people and ways we have been. "00goddess" was me as a young woman, bizarrely optimistic and apparently on an upward trajectory. She had experienced a lot of loss, but life seemed to be getting better. I, today, have experienced much much more loss than I had 17 years ago. I'm wiser, I hope, but a lot less optimistic.
In the end I decided to keep this username for now, because I don't know what knew one I would use, and because this is how the people at LJ knew me. "00goddess" was a piece of art that I put most of myself into, and I made a lot of friends along the way. So for now, this is my username.
