Meg's Place - Site Statement - Part 2
(Written 10/10/2000)
For the past 5 years the internet has played a large role in my life. It
started out as a brand new way to communicate and access information, but it grew into
something that would forever alter my life forever. Obviously these passed 5 years
have also been a very important time for me. It was my time to learn, to grow, and
to change... greatly. I am not the same person I was 5 years ago (as I'm sure most
of you reading this are not either). Everyone changes over time and that's a great
part of life in general. I am writing this now in hopes of explaining some of my
feelings lately. As I've entered college and experienced the excitement of
"college life" (which I honestly do love by the way), I have also began to put
things into perspective and think about everything in my life. I, like many people I
suppose, have big plans for my future. I have a pretty good idea of what I want to
do, or at least the general field where I need to be heading to. I feel ready to
take on a lot more freedom then I ever have possessed in the past. I am ready to
take control of my life (as best as possible) and start moving in the right direction.
Now, I don't expect everyone who bothers to read this (and thanks for reading it)
to understand what I'm talking about entirely. It's something you just have to
experience and when you do get there you will know what I mean. But, my hope in
writing this is to express my feelings about things right now... and I have feelings on a
lot of things. Mainly I just want to mention some things about this site. I'm
sure many of you who do take the time to read this have already read my first Site Statement from a few months ago. This was my
first attempt at displaying my feelings and I believe that most of you knew where I was
coming from. At this point in my life I am ready to prepare for my future and have
an extremely great time doing it too. So this is why I'm writing this. Simply
to let you all know, the people who time and time again come to visit my website for
whatever reason, get something out of it or not, and aren't afraid to let me know how you
feel about it, good and bad included. I am writing this to say that my site WILL
NOT close down in the near future, but yes it certainly will change and have many things
added to it. I might not always have a lot of time... school and work keep my pretty
busy, but you all know that I'm not going anywhere. Not away from this site and
certainly not away from the internet! I will just have to let time take it's course
and see where it takes me and my site too for that matter. I have so many things I
would like to do, but some I don't have the means to do and some I simply don't have the
time to focus on as I'd like. But even in lack of update times, I hope that people
will understand that I am only human. I have watched my own site change and grow, as
well as the internet and the world has, over these passed 5 years. Rather, I should
say I have been able to watch MYSELF change throughout the course of this site. I am
actually grateful for that because whether intentional or not, it's given me great insight
to myself as well as other people and the world around us. Now, in a attempt to end
my little rant here (and if you actually read all the way down to this point I thank you,
I really don't expect that many people to) I have to give a final thank you to all the
viewers of my site... it doesn't matter for what reasons you come, you might even hate my
site, but if it entertains you then I suppose it's still managed to serve it's purpose
hasn't it? I hope for my dreams of the future to take me far, and I plan to take all
of you with me.
Until Next Time! :o)
