Trust me... I would never....

Ok so I found out something the other day that more than irritated me... I mean it seriously made my insides hurt. Not just because I felt betrayed but because it's VERY rare that I actually share (or in this particular case, didn't even SHARE, the person "formulated" their own assumption based on other information) something extremely personal. So imagine my shock when a mutual "acquaintance" told me of this word vomit that came out of the supposed friend's mouth.

Now, mind you, I would have told this friend anyway, because she is actually a FRIEND. In fact, I actually was telling her the whole truth, not the "half truth" I told the other person... which they then twisted and mangled into their own distorted cluster f*ck. The truth of the matter is that something in my subconscious told me not to tell the "distorter", if you will, the complete and utter truth. Even though, in the past, I've shared other "secrets" with this person and was always told, in exchange for my "please don't tell anyone", "TRUST ME, I would NEVER say anything".

So obviously this is still bothering me or I would have let it go days ago. But here's what I CANNOT figure out for the life of me: WHY did "the distorter" share the information OUT OF THE BLUE with the other person?. The information had absolutely nothing to do with either of them; the misconstrued information was 100% about ME and did not affect either one of them in any way, shape or form. Which leads me to a much bigger question: how much other information that I've shared IN CONFIDENCE with this person have they felt the need to pass along to any random passerby, or worse yet, someone that WOULD be hurt or negatively affected by information?????

God forbid "the distorter" actually think before speaking..... Now I'm left to wonder if she's so "nice" to me just so that I'll confide in her and maybe, just maybe, she'll get something juicy out of me that she can use for her own twisted means. Trust me, I WON'T make that mistake again.

Take another little piece of my heart now baby

So I've always wanted to start one of these things and actually maintain it. Unfortunately, I'm not a very open person when it comes to putting myself out there for other people to examine and analyze. However, I think this could be be very therapeutic for me and maybe, just maybe, I'll learn a little something about MYSELF in the process. I like the idea of just being able to ramble or vent whenever I please. Along with that, my goal is to take a picture every day of "something". Just a reminder of something that caught my attention for a brief moment in time.

And so it begins....
