There are some things I just don't get

I don't get Twitter. I'm sorry, I just don't. Maybe that's because I have a very limited life, but I don't feel the need to let people know what I'm doing/thinking/feeling 24 hours a day. And if I do ever feel a need for that, that's why I use LJ. Also, I get the feeling that probably no one would care enough to read my tweets if I made an account. I don't know, perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't feel the need to test the theory. I have thought about making an account just for the purpose of following people, but somehow it seems weird to do that.

Thoughts about grief

No one ever tells you
when you lose someone
that grief flows like water.

It's like a tide,
going in and out.
Some days it throbs
like a gaping wound,
and others
it's like a paper cut.

It's fog that
drifts along the
edges of thoughts,
colouring the world
in shades of grey.
