On second thought

I realize that in my last post I left you with "Sincerely, Imanie". The last thing I want is for this to be received as a diary beginning every with "Dear Diary". That feels so impersonal. This is much more casual, as it should, using "you" so off handedly as if we were old friends. I don't even know who "you" are. I feel like I'm talking to everyone, no one, and myself at the same time. It actually renders me feeling rather alone. Alone in the sense or an owner talking to their beloved pet, pouring their soul and thought into ear of the animal and the pet calmly and silently listening as if they were just continuously letting the information soak into their skin. I don't really talk to my actual pets like that. But I'm sure some people do. Although I am sincere about all the words I bleed, I do not wish to make this a diary.  It's an account of daily thoughts of anything.
