So I had a think about moving my old livejournal posts here as a kind of archive in case the site ever goes down or whatever. But as I went through the old posts last night I realized how much of it is negativity. I mean of course it was - I was an unmedicated transgender borderline person who hated his family life. Things have gotten a lot better since then at least and that's a blessing.
Although it is nostalgic to look back on my old posts and find old memes, in-jokes and stuff like that, it's also rather upsetting. There's so many friends I was so close with only to never to speak to them again once LJ had its downfall, records of my own misery and bad memories, descriptions of nightmares, obituaries to lost pets (whose photos seem to be replaced with random ones) and more.
It has been 7 years since I was active on LJ and blogged regularly and I feel it's time for a new start. I often think that I've gotten nowhere and that I have accomplished nothing, but looking back I can see that in fact I'm doing well. Sure some things have gone to shit, my health is no good and I'm now disabled but at least I know where I am in life for the most part.
I feel that posting my old LJ posts here would form some kind of toxic foundation to place my future writings on, and so I am starting a new. I'm too exhausted today to write much more but I do have ideas for more posts very soon, including what has been happening since my last LJ updates!
