You know, whenever I read the quote on the homepage of the site, I think about how I interact with the site, the stories I share (even the embarrassing ones that make me look stupid). I think about how open I leave myself sometimes (the voice post and the free thinking are good examples). But I think that's what TheManagement wanted. I think that's why the quote is there.
I know plenty on the site have insecurities. Me too. I often display mine, so at least I can say I'm aware of them. Some people might hide behind theirs though, and even start snarling or biting, a less pleasant display of their insecurity. We can all pretend to be a boss; it doesn't make us a boss.
I know that you wavered on the voice (so did dom and I), and I wavered momentarily on the free thinking, but you did it. It takes a bit of bravery to put yourself up as a target to be shot at. You'll notice most of the people who like doing the shooting don't have the bravery to show themselves as a target.
Before normal "evil" service is resumed, I just wanted to say that I'm really very proud of you. Both of you. :)
It sounds like I have split personality disorder or something, haha:P. But seriously, thank you, that actually really means a lot to me for you to say that:). I don't know if I've said it before, although I feel like I've made it pretty obvious, but I really value your opinion.
And I never really appreciated the quote until the voice experiment thing. Partly because that was the one I recorded so I had to read and pay attention to it, but mainly because I could actually relate to it.
In my mind I'm more open here than a few weeks ago, so hopefully I won't be doing any snarling or biting...as fun as it sounds:P!
Has IIN had a positive or negative impact on your life?
